March 29 @ 9:00 am – 12:00 pm
Get your hands dirty for clean water and a greener Baltimore! Join Blue Water Baltimore staff as we plant trees on the campus of Riderwood Elementary School. We are thankful to one of the parents who requested this project and facilitated its approval from the school. We will be planting over 80 trees some small native trees in deer tubes and some larger stock as well.
Volunteers new to planting trees and expert TreeKeepers alike are welcome to attend. Our tree planting projects are rain or shine, and we recommend closed-toed shoes and clothing that is appropriate for the weather and getting dirty. Hats, sunblock, and sunglasses are strongly encouraged. We ask volunteers to bring a reusable water bottle to reduce waste. We provide work gloves, hand tools, and snacks but feel free to bring your own if you prefer.
Pizza will be provided for lunch at the end of the event.
