The mission of the Children and Elders Forest organization is to plant indigenous trees in groves, to deepen bonds among the generations, and to improve the quality of life in our communities. Since 2005, Children and Elders Forest has established nine groves. Two of the groves, Turtle Grove and Eagle Grove, are in Maxwell Park at Parkside Road and Gregory Street.
The goal of Children and Elders Forest is to plant as many trees as possible by having multi-generational teams sponsor trees. Each tree sponsoring team should consist of at least one child and one elder. However, there is no limit to how many people are on a team, made up from a group of families, friends, or organizations. Many people also sponsor trees in memory of a loved one.
