NeighborWoods: Community Tree Planting Day

Who: Greensboro Beautiful

What: In partnership with Greensboro Beautiful, The NeighborWoods Community Tree Planting program is designed to help restore the tree cover in Greensboro by planting trees in neighborhoods and open space. This program is funded by private donations and grants to Greensboro Beautiful and is accomplished with the help of hundreds of volunteers of all ages and abilities working alongside City staff as part of a unique public/private partnership. Groups, clubs, families, and individuals are encouraged to participate in this event. It provides a hands-on opportunity to invest in the City’s natural environment, reconnect with nature, and work with other members of the community.

When: November 18, 2023 - Registration begins at 10:15am, Tree Planting begins at 10:50am

Where: We will be meeting at Lindley Park Recreation Center at 2907 Springwood Drive in Greensboro.

How: Light refreshments will be served in the morning, and they will have water, hot cocoa, and some coffee available, but it is HIGHLY encouraged that you bring your own reusable water bottle to reduce waste and plastic consumption. Teams will be broken into planting groups with a planting supervisor in charge of the group. GBI gloves and shovels will be distributed to volunteers. 

Please make sure everyone in your group has filled out the following waiver prior to volunteering: https://greensborobeautiful.org/tree-plantings/neighborwoods/neighborborwoods-volunteer-waiver/
