We understand how valuable privacy is and how important it is to be able to go about one’s daily activities without the prying eyes of neighbours or curious passersby. To secure the privacy of your home or office space, consider erecting a natural barrier — with trees.
Privacy trees can grow up to 60 feet tallfeet in height,making planting fast-growing trees a sustainable, eco-friendly substitute to a hardscaped privacy fence.
Mature trees create a beautiful and lush landscape, while providing privacy and shelter from the elements. Our family-owned and operated tree farm provides a wide selection of shade trees and Evergreens for you to choose from, along with advice from our experts on how to best care for your trees.”

Choosing the Best Privacy Tree
Choose among an array of beautiful privacy trees at Caledon Treeland. Plan ahead to make the right decision for your home and yard. Ask yourself:
-
- Do you like a flowering tree that provides seasonal colour to your yard, or do you prefer something that is green all year round? Knowing your personal taste helps us to recommend the right type of tree for you.
- Where will I plant? Measure how much area you need to cover to determine the number of trees required. The size of the tree also affects the look of the space. If you have a small yard, you will want trees that complement your smaller space, rather than overwhelm.
- How much height do I need? Decide how tall you want your privacy screen to be. Take into account the tree’s growth rate. Some fast-growing trees become tall and wide in a matter of months. Seek the help of our tree experts when planting to avoid overgrowth that could potentially damage nearby buildings or power lines.
- What kind of soil do I have? Each type of tree has different needs, but most require slightly acidic and moist soil to thrive. If you have a poor soil quality in your area, you’ll want to have organic or acidic mix added to the ground before planting. Our arborists will check the pH level of the soil and add the nutrients your trees will need.
Choose your tree carefully and make sure that it is the perfect fit for your property. We will help you make an informed decision by providing you with sound advice on your tree selection; we will make certain that your chosen tree will thrive in the specific conditions in your garden.
