2022 Volunteer Tree Planting Relay – Treelay Planting in Kirkwood PA (Site 1)

October 28th, 2022 6:00 pm - 10:00 pm

24 HOURS OF VOLUNTEERING FOR OUR FORESTS, FOR OUR STREAMS, FOR OUR FUTURE

Every year, the Alliance engages communities, companies, and conservationists to plant thousands of trees in the Chesapeake Bay watershed. We’ve been looking for a big, bold way to celebrate the fantastic tree planting efforts of our volunteers. Hence, The 24-Hour Volunteer Tree Planting Relay, also known as Treelay for short. Treelay is a series of volunteer tree plantings scheduled back-to-back over a 24-hour period (hence the relay). More information can be found at allianceforthebay.org/treelay.

Join a tree planting relay- a Treelay! 6 sites, 4 hours each, for a 24-hour total continuous tree planting event.
