Tree Planting in Millersville – Replanting event

October 29th, 2024 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

One of the best actions you can do to improve the health of the Bay is to plant trees. Be a part of the Alliance’s reforestation efforts by volunteering with us this Fall!

Tree planting sites need regular maintenance for the first 3-5 years after their installation to give young saplings a fighting chance at becoming a forest. Part of this maintenance is to replace dead trees with new, vibrant ones in the early years. Come join us for a replanting event.

What to wear & bring

Please dress for the weather, we are rain or shine! Volunteers need to wear long pants, clothes that can get dirty, and close-toed shoes (boots recommended). We also recommend a hat, bug spray, sunscreen, and gloves if you have them. Please bring water for yourself. Shovels will be provided.

Accessibility

  • Volunteers should be prepared to walk, bend, stoop, and kneel, dig, and do some minor lifting. A planting demonstration will be given at the beginning of the event.
  • Children of all ages are welcome to attend with their guardians.
  • Bathrooms are not available.
  • Please follow all parking directions when arriving.
