The Société de verdissement du Montréal métropolitain (Soverdi) works to implement strategies to increase the urban forest with a view to improving community health and quality of life. In partnership with the City of Montréal, the organization is playing a key role in the ambitious Plan d’action Forêt urbaine project, which calls for 300,000 trees to be planted on the Island of Montréal by 2025. To contribute to this goal, Soverdi is coordinating, in collaboration with partners from Alliance forêt urbaine, the planting of 180,000 trees on private and institutional properties.
