Davisville Village resident and “tree advocate”, Helen Godfrey, is spotted weeding and clearing debris from a City tree in front of Baskin and Robbins. Helen is the founder of Bayview Buckets and is a kind of guardian angel of our trees. Helen feels strongly about community coming together to take care of our City’s greenery. Helen’s blog entries: Our Bayview Buckets adopt-a-tree watering initiative got off to a late start last summer, but this year I’m looking forward to a full season of watering to help the trees thrive. Last year, I canvassed all the merchants on this four-block long neighbourhood commercial strip at Bayview Ave. and Davisville Ave. Most (over 20) of the businesses were on side and agreed to water the tree in front of their store when the weather became hot and dry. Some were quite enthusiastic and promised to put flowers in their tree planters for spring 2013!Helen Godfrey keeps Bayview Buckets going
