Earth Day Clean-Up April 20, Tree Toga on April 27

SARATOGA SPRINGS — Sustainable Saratoga marks its 4th annual Earth Day Team Up to Clean Up event on Saturday, April 20, from 10 a.m.- Noon at various locations in and around Saratoga Springs. 

Sustainable Saratoga will provide gloves, vests and garbage bags needed to complete the clean-up task. Interested volunteers should e-mail zerowaste@sustainablesaratoga.org.

On April 27, Sustainable Saratoga will host Tree Toga, an Urban Forestry Project designed to plant the next generation of trees in Saratoga Springs. Volunteers will meet at Pitney Meadows Community Farm at 9:30 a.m. to learn the art of bare-root tree planting. Then, armed with the expert guidance of Lead Planters, teams scatter citywide to plant an estimated 35 large-growing shade trees.
