Casey Trees is the region’s leading nonprofit tree organization. Their staff is usually out in the field planting trees, creating conservation easements, or leading stewardship and education events. Join Capital Nature co-founder Stella Tarnay in this rare opportunity to hear directly from lead staff about their work, as we take our tree series conversation from street trees to yards, private lots, and small parks:
– Hear how Casey Trees, civic groups—and residents like us—are helping restore DC’s tree canopy throughout the city and in our neighborhood.
– Learn how best practices for watering and mulching can extend a tree’s life.
– Tune in to tree volunteer opportunities.
– Find out how to get a free tree.
– See how homeowners are creating rain gardens and tree oases in their yards.
– Ask a gnarly question about caring for your trees!
This is the second in a three-part series on trees and their care, hosted by Capital Nature in partnership with Cleveland Park Library. Thank you to ANC3C for their support.
The event will include a table with tree resources and information. Two tree books will be given away as part of the program.
