Join NYC Parks Stewardship as we celebrate the legacy of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and care for local street trees! Volunteers will learn how to aerate, cultivate, mulch, and identify street trees. They will also learn about the important roles street trees play in New York City. Volunteers should dress in clothes that can get dirty and closed toe shoes. Face masks may be worn at your discretion. Space is limited and registration is required. Volunteers under 18 must be accompanied by a chaperone. This event has been sponsored by the New York City Council Member Alexa Aviles of Council District 38. To sign up a group of 10 or more volunteers please reach out to stewardship@parks.nyc.gov.
