Community Arbor Day Celebration

Every spring, ReTreeUS receives hundreds of bare-root fruit trees that need to be potted and cared for throughout the summer. These trees will eventually find homes in school and community orchards - This is no small task, which is why we’re calling on our friends, family, and neighbors to lend a hand and make this possible!This is a true community effort, and we are deeply grateful for everyone who joins in to help make it happen.

This is an open-house-style event, meaning you can come and go as needed! Volunteers can jump into potting trees at any time, enjoy live music, explore the river trail, and take part in a variety of family friendly activities throughout the day.
