Hundreds gathered at the Children's Aid Society on Bell Farm Road on Saturday to help plant a tree in support of the "Green Agency" initiative, a symbolic gesture that unites the Children's Aid Society's growing concern for the environment and its children.

For each popsicle stick placed on the property on Friday, a tree worth $5 was planted in its place on Saturday to help fund education bursaries and scholarships for the agency’s children
