Since the MillionTreesNYC campaign started, over 220,000 trees have been planted throughout the City, more than 30,000 just in street trees. Help us take care of these newly planted trees by coming to a tree care workshop presented by the MillionTreesNYC Stewardship Corps. In this basic workshop, you'll learn from Parks’ foresters:
- What is MillionTreesNYC?
- How to identify trees in New York City
- Benefits of Trees
- Tree Care – Water! Weed! Mulch!
- Educational Resources
- Adopt-a-Tree website
You’ll also receive free tools!
