FRIDAY, APRIL 30

10 AM // ARBOR DAY TREE PLANTING // the steel yard, 27 sims ave

Sassafras Albidum. Betula Papyrifera. Taxodium Distichum. Rhus Typhinia. Acer Rubrum. No, we aren’t casting any spells and the keyboards in our office all work just fine. These are varieties of the 113 trees being planted at the Steel Yard on National Arbor Day!

It’s been over six months since the jungle that was the ‘back 40′ was cleared for remediation and when the vines that climbed their way to the top of the gantries were yanked down. But now that spring is in the air and construction is drawing to a close, it’s time to welcome the color green back to the Yard! Please join us on April 30th, along side Groundwork Providence and Trees 2020, for a day of tree planting and celebration. Planting will begin at 10 AM and go through the afternoon. Everyone is welcome!
