Celebrating trees all week

We are so excited for our amazing Arbor Week events, starting this tomorrow/

This Friday (4/21 between 10-2) join us as we prepare over 1,100 seedlings for distribution across Boston for Arbor Week. Meet at The Community Table at The Rocks at Harbor Way in the Seaport. Come enjoy snacks, coffee, and company as we help build a greener Boston for all. Please plan to stay for an hour or longer anytime between 10am and 2pm.

What’s Place Got to Do With it? with Dr. Lucy Hutyra

Wed April 26 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Trees and green space provide more benefits than can easily be tallied, but not all trees or forests are all the same.  As we think about climate solutions, conservation and expanding our urban tree canopies it is critical to consider the role of place – including local needs and opportunities.
