Tree planting party this Saturday, Sept. 29 at Alpine Public Library
On September 24, 2012
|
You are invited to a tree-planting party at the Alpine Public Library on Saturday, September 29th, beginning at 1 p.m. Charles Stair of the Texas Forest Service will be on hand to demonstrate proper tree planting techniques and answer questions, then we go to work to get 24 trees in the ground. Please bring your own digging tools, gloves, and drinking water. Even if you can’t dig, help will be needed to water (learn what a Gator-Bag is!) and place mulch. This tree-planting is part of the Native Plant Demonstration Garden grant awarded to Keep Alpine Beautiful and funded in part by Lowe’s, Keep America Beautiful and Keep Texas Beautiful. This is a great volunteer opportunity to do something that will become part of Alpine’s history….leave a legacy, plant a tree! For more information, call 294-3183.
