I wanted to let you know about some of the upcoming Canopy plantings this fall, particularly our Planting Leader Training on October 8th. It is going to be a busy season. Please let me know if you can volunteer with us. See below for dates and times. It would be great to see you at the next planting!

9:00 to 11:00 AM: Planting Leader Training
Trees planted by Canopy have an exceptional rate of establishment and survival as a result of our rigorous planting protocols. Come learn our technique and share your planting insights.
This training will double as the preparation for a large planting event one-week later at the same site: October 15, 2011, at EPAPA school.
