April 22-27, 2019 Worcester Tree Initiative is elevating the celebration of trees in our community from the singular Arbor Day to a fully fledged Arbor Week! We want to plant in Worcester and all of its surrounding towns. To make that work we need places to plant, volunteers, and leaders for each planting location. Want to bring Arbor Week to your town? Email Derek at dlirange@towerhillbg.org. Tree Planting proposals due by January 31st!
