Community Tree-Planting Day 
Join us for a heartwarming day of giving back to the planet at our community tree-planting event! Whether you're young or young at heart, everyone is welcome to roll up their sleeves, get their hands dirty and make a difference as we plant native trees to help restore our environment.  Then grab a shovel, dig in and work alongside other volunteers to plant trees that will provide lasting benefits for wildlife and the future of our community. While we will have gloves and shovels available, we encourage participants to bring their own for a more personalized experience, as supplies are limited. As a special treat, each participant will receive their very own tree seedling to take home and plant as a lasting reminder of the day. This family-friendly event is the perfect opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals, learn something new and contribute to a greener future. Come for the trees, stay for the community and leave knowing you’ve helped plant a legacy that will grow for generations to come!
