From TreeFolks

Come plant trees with the Treefolks along Shoal Creek in Allendale this Saturday.

Ready, Set, Plant! is a partnership between the City of Austin Forestry Division, City of Austin Watershed Protection and TreeFolks, Inc. to plant small saplings. This event will help to restore native tree and shrub diversity and reduce water runoff and improve water quality in Austin’s creeks.

We will talk a little about the site’s history, discuss the role of the urban forest, learn about riparian ecosystems, and explain how these plantings will help the waterways of Austin thrive.

You should wear long pants and closed toe shoes as we will be working in areas with tall vegetation along the creek. Bring a water bottle and dress appropriately for the weather.  Water, coffee, light refreshments, gloves and tools will be provided.

Register here and choose from any of our upcoming tree planting events.
