Family Tree Planting Day
Saturday, November 10,
from 8 AM to 12 noon
Come out to plant a tree or two or three for the future. We
have designated areas on Westbury esplanades that need trees. As you
drive around you will see empty spots. We invite all Westbury residents
to register for this event. We will assign you a place to plant, mulch
and stake the trees. We hope to record and photograph families and/or
individuals who plant each tree so that they will have a record of their
participation.

If you have a few hours to spare on April 8th or 9th, we could use your help planting a few more trees around the community garden. On April 8th at 9am, we need help loading and unloading the trees into and out of the truck. On Saturday, April 9th, youth probationers, who are working off disciplinary actions from their schools, will be planting trees. We need volunteers from 9am-11:30am to show them how to plant the trees. Please contact Hazel Potvin at wccmaintenance@westburycrier.com for more information.

On Saturday March 12th from 9am-12pm we will be planting trees along the street near the community garden. The community garden is located just west of Hillcroft at Dunlap and Greencraig (click here for map). Trees for Houston will be there and we hope you will be too. The holes will be augured, making it easier to get the trees in the ground. Contact Hazel Potvin at wccmaintenance@westburycrier.com to be part of the tree planting team. |
