Please join us for an exciting pre-season tree planting out on the Farmington River at the lovely FRWA Frey Property on March 28th and 29th! We’ve created two sessions for folks to pick the date that works best for their schedules, and we really look forward to getting some beautiful native trees in the ground together with friends & families from the community. Both sessions are from 10am -2pm. We do ask that folks register in advance so we can prepare with equipment and refreshments. Also, please be sure to wear warm layers and boots ready for work! Shovels and gloves will be provided but feel free to bring yours if you prefer. Click Read More for more info and to sign up.
