Tree-planting events are fun for all ages so grab your friends and family and sign up for 1 or all of the 5 community volunteer tree-planting events happening this Fall at various location in Frederick County, Maryland.
These plantings will create a forest that will help protect cold-water trout streams from stormwater runoff. This project has a direct impact on the health of the Chesapeake Bay. Come learn how and be a part of this large-scale local initiative to reforest 30 acres of Frederick County streamsides!

What to bring: garden gloves, sun protection, and water to stay hydrated. Wear closed-toed shoes and dress for the weather. We will plant rain or shine! The holes are pre-dug so no shovels are necessary.
If you have any questions or would like to discuss unique event sponsorship opportunities, email Lisa Baird, Program Director, at lisa.streamlink@gmail.com.
See you in the field!

Mission Statement
Connecting community to conservation.
Description
Stream Link Education organizes and leads tree plantings with local community members, organizations and businesses. With the help of volunteers, we plant native trees and shrubs in the area called the riparian zone, which is the land that extends from the banks of a stream. Planting trees next to streams creates a Forest Buffer that not only removes carbon out of the air like other forests, but it soaks up stormwater, chemicals, excess nutrients, sediments, and more before they enter into our streams, rivers, and ultimately end up in the Chesapeake Bay.
