Celebrate Arbor Day with Friends of Trees and the City of Salem by planting a variety of native and ornamental trees at Bill Riegel Park. In addition to planting, we will be spreading bark chips to re-establish a walking trail around the park and mulching the newly planted trees. Your help makes this park transformation possible!
Please arrive by 8:45am to sign-in and enjoy some breakfast treats and coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. The planting starts promptly at 9:00am. We provide gloves, tools, and guidance, so all you need to do is show up dressed for the weather and wearing sturdy shoes or boots - and be ready to have fun!
Under age 18? A signed youth waiver (https://friendsoftrees.org/youthwaiver) is required for you to volunteer. We ask that youth 15 years and younger are accompanied by an adult.
Please contact Jenny, Pablo, and Carey at (503) 595-0213 // volunteer@friendsoftrees.org if you have questions or need any further information. We look forward to seeing you out there!
