Tree and friend
The Arboretum is reviving its tree collection

Please come and build a legacy...
 
Saturday, March 29, from 9 am to noon, help rebuild the Concord urban forest by planting 17 rare and unique trees at the Markham Nature Park.
   We need 40 volunteers to plant the trees which come from around the world. The trees and materials were made possible by a grant from California ReLeaf, as part of Arbor Week activities across the nation.

Participants are asked to bring a shovel and rake, and dress in long pants, long sleeves, and sturdy shoes.

Please RSVP to info@markhamarboretum.org with the number of people you are bringing.
