Tree Planting at Anoka Nature Preserve

Join us on Saturday, October 24th from 9:00AM-12:00PM as we plant diverse species of potted and bare root trees! This event will be held on-site at Anoka Nature Preserve, located at 4299 Parkview Ln, Anoka, MN 55303.

The program is free but registration is required to ensure we have enough supplies for everyone. This event will involve walking on paved trails and uneven forest floor. Volunteer work will also involve bending, digging, lifting, and watering. If you anticipate needing any accommodations in order to volunteer or have any questions, please contact Lauren Schmelzer by email at [email protected]

In case of bad weather, this event may be postponed. All registered volunteers will be informed in advance and an alternative date and time will be provided through email.

Please bring a water bottle, sun protection, insect repellent, and gardening gloves (ACD has some gloves for volunteers, but it is encouraged to bring your own). We recommend wearing long pants and close-toed shoes or hiking boots to protect yourself from spiky undergrowth and dirt.

This project was made possible through a grant from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
