Two local organizations, Vestal Public Library and Church in the Wild, are teaming up with Neighborhood Forest to cultivate a greener community and foster environmental stewardship in young minds. This Earth Day, celebrate our planet by signing your child up to receive a free tree!
This exciting initiative allows children to connect with nature and contribute to a more sustainable future.
To reserve your free tree:
Sign up through the Vestal Public Library and pick up your free tree on Saturday, April 27, 2024 at the library's annual Seedy Saturday event.
OR
Sign up through Church in the Wild and pick up your free tree on April 20 at Sky Lake in Windsor or on April 21 at a to-be-determined location in Downtown Binghamton.
If you're not sure how to plant a tree and make sure it grows and thrives, you can refer to this online tree planting tutorial and step-by-step planting instructions. If you don't have space in your own yard, consider planting the tree with a friend or family member who does. Neighborhood Forest is developing an alternative indoor program for the future.
