Help prune, water or mulch trees on Wednesday mornings. Pruning of trees along the streets of Lafayette is normally done each week unless there has been a lack of precipitation, in which case watering of trees is done. Re-mulching of existing trees is done periodically as needed. The continuing care of newly planted trees is critical for survival. We care for trees that are planted for the first three years. The community needs your help.
The work is outdoors and provides some excersize and fresh air. The events are usually held May through mid November. The location of each event varies each week as needed. No experience is necessary, as we can teach you what to do. All tools and materials are provided.
Sign up to be on the weekly notification email list in order to be notified of the location, activities and time of the upocoming weekly event. Starting time is usually between 8am and 9am and ends around noon.
