Milliontreesnyc Tree Care Workshop Hosted by Brooklyn Botanic Garden September 21, 2010

Street trees do much to improve our environment, but they often receive little care. In this class, learn the benefits of street trees and how to improve the health of a street tree by caring for its bed. Get tips on amending soil, mulching, watering, pruning, and tree-bed gardening. Since the MillionTreesNYC campaign started, over 375,000 trees have been planted across the city’s five boroughs, more than 70,000 along the streets. Help us take care of these newly planted trees by coming to a MillionTreesNYC stewardship workshop where you will learn: • What is MillionTreesNYC? • How to identify trees in New York City • Benefits trees bring to our city • Tree Care – Water! Weeds! Compost! Mulch! Pledge to take care of a specific street tree and get a FREE watering kit and volunteer card (Please be able to tell us where your tree is located).
