Watering Team Members Still Needed for Historic Wooster Square Park Trees - Please Join 🌳🌞🌳

🌳 New neighbors have moved into Wooster Square Park and they need your help! 🌳 We're looking for volunteers to water the newly planted trees as they get established and put down roots in our community. Each tree needs 25 gallons, once a week, but you'll only need to commit 2 hours at a time! Equipment and instructions will be provided - and stored in the box that is now settled (but not yet quite ready) in the northern side of the Park. Flexible scheduling can be tailored to find a time that works for you. This is a community partnership between the Historic Wooster Square Association, the Wooster Square Conservancy, the New Haven Parks Department, Urban Resources Initiative, and neighbors like YOU!
