Calling all volunteers as we dig into this season of tree plantings starting on Saturday, October 23!
Help us increase the tree canopy in neighborhoods most impacted by the urban heat island effect.
This planting will focus on the Taylor-Berry, Jacobs, Hazelwood, Beechmont, Oakdale, and Wilder Park neighborhoods in South Louisville.
This October tree planting is in partnership with UofL’s Green Heart project, a first of its kind multi-year study. By taking a closer look at the relationship we have with our neighborhood trees and their affect on our mental and physical health, we can continue to grow greener, healthier neighborhoods.
Thank you to our sponsors: Louisville Grows, UPS, Arbor Day Foundation, The Nature Conservancy Kentucky and U of L Christina Lee Brown Envirome Institute.
Please contact Charlie at volunteer@louisvillegrows.org or 502-655-9830 with any questions or concerns.
This is a UofL Sustainability Week event!
