volunteers planting large tree

UPDATE: EVENT IS POSTPONED TO 5/8, 12:30-4:30PM due to heavy rains.

Volunteers Needed to help plant ~100 large trees in Hagerstown Park.

  • Saturday 5/7 10sm-2pm tree planting, unless rain is too heavy. We will email a "Go/NoGo" decision to registered volunteers by 8 am Sat morning.

  • Sunday Rain date 5/8, 12:30-4:30pm

  • Monday 5/9 3:30 pm - if needed, wrap up rest of plantings

  • If needed, additional week day work times will be scheduled.

Grant funding was recently obtained by the Maryland Forest Service from the Chesapeake and Coastal Bays Trust Fund for ~100 large trees to be planted at Reservoir Park, Hagerstown. The trees need to be planted very soon, so ACWA is switching our previously scheduled May 7th work day to help with this planting event.
Many hands are needed! These trees are large size (3/4" to 1.5" caliper), similar to those used in our street tree plantings. Only a few holes will be pre-dug for the largest trees, so volunteers will help dig appropriate sized holes and properly plant the trees.
