RESCHEDULED! NEW DATES - Friday November 6 and Saturday, November 7, 2015

We need volunteers for Friday 8am-2pm (work as long as you want), and also Saturday, (8am-2pm) with the most need in the morning.

ACT offers 3 species each of large shade and small understory trees. This program seeks to encourage biodiversity through a varied tree palate, and stresses the importance of planting the right tree in the right place.

This year we wil be in the Heritage Hills/Windsor Hills neighborhood.

Volunteers will pick up the trees from the staging location at ABCO Paper Company (11101 Bluff Bend Drive) and then deliver them to participating homes. A few trees will be planted for select homes. Paper lawn bags will also be filled with mulch and delivered with the trees.

Pick up trucks are needed!

Dress for the weather Volunteers! Light Rain or shine! Bring hats, sunscreen, and water. Tools will be provided but volunteers should bring their own if possible. Refreshments provided.
