Calling all Tree Huggers!

Are you passionate about greening our urban environment, especially in residential areas? Then this event is for you! Join this fall's second Tiny Tree Planting session to help grow our urban tree canopy as part of the City’s Climate Action and Adaptation Plan.

You will team up with Urban Ambassadors and the City Foresters of Des Moines on a fall Saturday at Union Park. All equipment and snacks will be provided. Just wear durable clothing and bring your water bottle & to go cup!

Meeting point: corner of E 9th St & E Jefferson Ave
Parking available in the park.

Through these plantings, we strive to lower extreme temperatures in our city, clean its air, mitigate floods, and make it overall more healthy and livable. Together, we can create a vibrant, green, pleasant city and showcase the power of community and #sustainability.

See you on the 7th of October!
