HOPEFUL HORIZON
GIVING BACK IS WHERE IT'S AT
We have opened our doors in Bracebridge, ON to raise awareness and funding for our community while giving back to the environment. We distinguish a close connection with those around us by choosing to support local organizations that create a better standard of living in our own backyards.
Thank you for connecting thus far. Please see below for current projects.
MAKE YOUR CHRISTMAS MORE GREEN
Why not take the challenge?
We are launching the first year of our 'Green Christmas Challenge' and will be posting daily tips and ideas for having an environmentally friendly holiday. We are also partnering up with Little Sprouts Eco-Club in Muskoka and offering an eco gift wrapping workshop.

NATIVE TREE FUNDRAISER
Habitat for Humanity: Ontario Gateway North
Generation Homes Project
Contribute to the housing crisis in the Muskoka area. We are selling native to Muskoka area seedlings (approx. 1ft high) for $10.00 where 100% of the proceeds will go towards helping Habitat for Humanity's build in Huntsville, ON. Together we can help provide safe, affordable, homes for four families.
Click below link for more information on the build:
Once your tree is purchased we will provide you with a pick up address, date & time. You can also purchase & pick up at Tree at the Annex (27 Manitoba St, Bracebridge, ON) or find us at the Bracebridge Farmers Market.
Not wanting a tree but wanting to donate? No problem! The tree you purchased will be donated to one of two local camps in the area.
Trees graciously provided by Grow Wild! Native Plant Nursery.
Planting Instructions:
Step 1: Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball.
Step 2: Plant the tree level with the ground and backfill around the root ball, lightly packing the soil as you go.
Check to ensure the trunk is straight.
Step 3: Water regularly until your tree is established, about 3 months. Then you can gradually reduce frequency of watering.
Wait until the following year, then provide a moderate dose of fertilizer. A 3-inch layer of mulch around the base of the tree will keep weeds out and reduce water loss.
