Rooted In Trees
Oct. 6, 10 a.m. to noon
One of the most effective, powerful ways people can greatly improve local communities is by the simple act of planting trees. Join Geauga Soil and Water Conservation District, Geauga Park District and the newly founded, Chardon-based Rooted in Trees organization for a free, family-friendly tree-planting event at Orchard Hills Park in Chester Township.
Participants of all ages will learn how to properly plant a tree with local resource professionals, see hands-on demonstrations including staking, proper mulching and deer guard installation, and take home a free tree seedling donated by Bartlett Tree Experts.
Registration is required by Oct. 5, for all participants, who must dress for the outdoors, bring a face covering and practice social distancing at the event. To register, visit geaugarootedintrees.eventbrite.com.
