This year, the LBNA planted 100 trees to honour Canadian Veterans as part of a program to plant 300 trees to commemorate veterans in Long Branch. The program is known as Long Branch Remembers.

All trees planted are native species and were planted at residences in Long Branch whose owners wished to honour a family member who was a veteran.
