We over-wintered 28 spruce trees and now is the time to plant. So the bottom line is:
We are looking for individuals and families to “Adopt a Tree”----for two weeks. It will be very easy (no holes to dig!) and will work as follows:
Date: Sat 5 June
Time: 9:30 – 11 AM
What to bring: shovels, wheel barrow if available, gloves
Holes will be pre – dug by back hoe the week before.
Black Dirt: will be easily accessible & placed in 3 convenient piles.
Trees: will be moved from their over-winter area (east lot) to the planting area on North side of church. What is required: place good dirt in hole, add tree, add additional dirt, tie tree to stakes for support, create a small ring of excavated material around tree for water retention, add mulch (also delivered to your area. Commit to watering “your” tree once every 3 days for two weeks.
Fun family time for all. Multiple families can share a tree
