Do your part to stop pollution and restore our hometown river by spending a fall morning planting trees! Bring your friends and family and join Potomac Conservancy and NOVA Parks as we plant 200 more trees at White's Ford Regional Park on Saturday, October 28! This is the second phase of our planting at White's Ford following our spring planting.
We all know that trees and fresh air go hand-in-hand, but trees are also a river's best friend. Our healthy forested lands protect the water we drink and the river we love. Learn about the essential link between trees and healthy rivers while getting tips on how to plant your own trees at home and enjoying the great outdoors.
All ages are welcome, but small children will need some strong helping hands to lead the way.
What you need:
- Close-toed shoes
- A smile!
What we provide:
Everything else!
All tools, drinking water, and supplies will be provided by NOVA Parks and Potomac Conservancy.
