Here’s a great way to beautify your property and help the environment at the same time, and it won’t cost you a thing.
It’s the 6th annual Sierra Club Tree Giveaway. On Saturday April 25, members and volunteers for the local chapter of the Sierra Club will be stationed at Webster Park to hand out free trees to the public.
What a great way to show your love to our planet. Trees provide beauty, shade, food and housing for all of us earthlings. Planting a tree is one way to be a grateful steward of our earth, and — not for nothing — nurturing a tree is nurturing your soul.
Your species options this year include white oak, white pine, paper birch, white cedar and serviceberry. Come early for the best selection.
Planting instructions will be included. All trees are bare-root, so please bring a bag or container of water to keep the roots wet until the tree can be planted.
The event will be held rain or shine on Saturday April 25 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Webster Park (corner of Lake and Holt roads). Sierra Club members will also be at Seneca Park, Northampton Park and Genesee Valley Park on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. if you find yourself closer to one of those parks that day.
This is the sixth year that the Sierra Club has held this event. The trees are free, but members will also be grateful for any small donations.
