Announcing...Volunteers Wanted!

From November through March is the best time to plant trees in the Alamo Region.  However, there are a few occasions coming up in which trees will be adopted out or planted to help increase our canopy and improve the health of our area during April and May.  If you are interested in volunteering to help adopt out or plant trees, please contact Meredith Ruiz to sign up.  Please help us spread the word to potential volunteers.  Improving our urban forest is a community effort.
