Earth Day Tree Planting
Help restore the forests of the Upper Arboretum. As part of the Northfield Earth Day celebration, we will be planting trees and guarding them with fences against beaver and deer. Wear closed-toe shoes, socks, and clothes that can get dirty. We'll provide gloves and tools. Bring a water bottle.
Time: We expect that some volunteers will not be able to stay for the full 3 hours so we will accommodate two starting times, 9:00 and 10:30, although you are welcome to stay for the whole event!
Meeting location: We have two locations for planting with the first location at the Upper Arboretum entrance at 2nd and Oak Streets. This is near the bridge over Spring Creek along the paved trail, near the Carleton tennis courts. Around 10:30 we will move to our second location. It will be easier to find us if you are there at 10:30 as we relocate, but we will post signs to help you get to the second location (near Spring Creek Road, across from the cemetery)
