About
Join us for a day of pruning and mulching at various Forest Preserves across the county. These are monthly events on the second Friday of the month. The chosen Forest Preserve's picnic grove trees are in need of some TLC and are priority sites for safety and public recreation.
What to Bring:
- Comfortable clothing suitable for light outdoor work. Closed-toed shoes.
- Gardening gloves if you have them.
- A reusable water bottle.
- Your enthusiasm!
