Event Details

 

To plant trees is to give body and life to one's dreams of a better world - Russell Page

 

Funfact: An average size tree produces enough oxygen in one year to keep a family of four breathing.

The Day of Service is an event to give back to nature.

Children watch and participate in a number of fun and hands-on eco friendly activities such as sowing seeds, planting trees, walking around older trees and learning all the way.

Kids work in small groups of 4-5 each with an eco expert and parent to help out.

The team of eco experts from Green Friends and Common Vision will work with children to educate them on various aspects of  tree planting and its connection to nature.

Please spread the word among your friends and family and have them sign-up.

Trees help us connect to nature and make us feel good! Any good work is done best with a group of loved ones!

This event is free and open to all!

All tools and supplies required for the nature activities will be provided by Green Friends and Common Vision. Participants do not need to bring anything.
