Tree Planting in Monroe

Make a difference in a few hours that can last decades! ReLeaf Michigan, a non-profit tree organization, is partnering with City of Monroe, River Raisin Watershed Council, and the US Forest Service to plant 35 trees along Telb St. An Urban Tree Canopy Assessment performed by project partners from Davey Resource Group identified the planting area as a priority for stormwater management benefits. Trees planted will help to intercept rainfall and reduce stormwater runoff.
ReLeaf Michigan’s tree experts will be there to show volunteers how to plant a tree and oversee the event. Please wear closed-toe shoes and bring a shovel, hard rake, and gloves if you have them. Event occurs rain or shine (we’re a hearty group!). No planting experience necessary. Families are welcome! We hope to see you there!
