Join One Tree Planted, Roger Williams Park Conservancy and the Providence Parks Department, for a fun morning of volunteering to celebrate Earth Month!

Volunteers will help move trees into place, will prepare the root balls, will place trees in pre-dug holes, fill in the holes with excess dirt, and spread native wood chip mulch. The City Forester will instruct the group on techniques for proper tree planting. We will provide shovels, gloves, water, snacks, and smiles. Please remember to:
