Plant Trees with Sustainable Saratoga at TREE TOGA on Saturday, April 29

SARATOGA SPRINGS — On Saturday, April 29, Sustainable Saratoga’s Urban Forestry Project will hold its 12th TREE TOGA tree planting event.

“This year’s Tree Toga is going to be a huge success, with 38 trees planted,” said Kelsey Trudell, Executive Director of Sustainable Saratoga, in a statement. “We’re still looking for volunteers to plant large-growing, native shade trees at locations throughout the city. Join us on April 29 to help us leave a green legacy for future generations in Saratoga Springs.”

Volunteer Tree Planters will check in at Pitney Meadows Community Farm at 9:30 a.m. on April 29 and get a lesson in tree planting before heading off in small teams to their assigned planting locations across the city. Once the trees are in the ground, the Tree Host homeowners and other volunteers provide the care that is critical to tree survival and the success of Sustainable Saratoga’s mission to preserve and expand Saratoga’s urban forest.
