Farewell, Planting Season 🌳👋 |
The season has come to a close, but not without a proper send off! |
|
|
| Last Saturday, a mass of volunteers joined us as we partnered with Metro Water Services, Friends of William Edmondson Homesite & Gardens, and the Edgehill Public Library to grow their canopy. Their 47 new trees will allow them to qualify for Level 2 Arboretum status! That brings our total to... drum roll, please... 1,755 trees this season! It's all thanks to you -- our volunteers, our Tree Fest recipients, our neighborhood leaders, and our planting partners. |
