[CANUFNET] ash tree question

[Hettmann, Joerg]

The Town of Newmarket is not planting any ash trees at this time.  We are not directly involved in private tree planting but would recommend against it if asked.

I hope this helps.

Hi all,

Apologies if this question has already been addressed by the group.

I'm wondering whether or not you are recommending (or advising against) the planting of ash trees in Ontario at this time?

I'm aware that some municipalities (Toronto, for example) have bans on the planting of ash trees on City-owned property, but my question relates to recommendations for private land-holders.

Ash trees are still for sale at nurseries. Should people plant them or not in Ontario?

I'm assuming no, but wonder if there is consensus on this.

With thanks in advance for your thoughts,
Lorraine Johnson
Toronto, Ontario
