Help is needed to mulch hundreds of native trees and shrubs that were planted this past winter! We will also be removing some weedy introduced plants, if time allows. Our Tree Care events help to ensure the highest level of plant survival through our dry summer months. Please note: this is not a planting event, we will be 100% doing tree care activities. 

Please arrive by 8:45am to sign-in and enjoy some breakfast treats and coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. The event starts at 9:00am. We provide gloves, tools, and guidance -- all you need to do is show up dressed for the weather wearing sturdy shoes or boots, and be ready to have fun!
