Earth Day Tree Planting at NBNC

Meet by the Community Garden at NBNC

Join us for a fun morning of giving back to the land to celebrate Earth Day! We will be transplanting small trees and shrubs from our tree nursery to an area along the North Branch River in need of habitat restoration. Our efforts will improve habitat for the birds, squirrels, deer, fox, otter, and many other creatures who frequent this area.

Transplanting these trees will also open up garden space for exciting new initiatives, including an indigenous garden space, an Abenaki Land Link plot, and a Homeland Garden for refugee families. Our work will be mutually beneficial to both wildlife and the human community! Please contact us if you are interested in joining the fun.

To Bring:

  • Sturdy closed-toe shoes or boots
  • Gloves (we have several pairs to loan) 
  • Shovel (if you have one; we have many if you do not)
  • Long pants recommended to protect from insect bites and scratches
  • Water and snacks
  • Sunscreen/ bug spray
  • Earth day enthusiasm!
