#7. A Natural and Sustainable Environment

Indigenous species of mature trees including a large Bur Oak, estimated to be more than a hundred years old, were maintained and incorporated as features in Mahogany’s green spaces and parks. Many plants and trees were saved and planted to provide privacy for homeowners while protecting the natural habitats of Manotick’s flora and wildlife. A historic stand of White Spruce, White Cedar, and Red Pine creates a Farmer’s Hedgerow along Bridgeport Avenue and provides a natural habitat for birds and other wildlife, while also acting to prevent soil erosion.
