Help beautify the community at tree planting event
And now for some nice tree-related news, the TREEmendous Miami group along with the Tropical Flowering Tree Society are having a tree planting event on US1 on Saturday, June 2. They have done this before along the side of the road, under the Metrorail tracks and other areas.
Volunteers are needed to help with this effort to add flowering and native trees and shrubbery in the Metrorail right of way along the City of Miami's portion of South Dixie Highway (US1).
Volunteers (18 and older please) will meet that morning at 8:30 am, in the parking lot of the Coconut Grove Metrorail Station located at SW 27 Avenue and US 1. After signing in and debriefing, volunteers will be divided into teams to work on specified portions of the project.
Volunteers are encouraged to wear hard-soled, closed shoes and sun protection. If you have one, please bring a shovel and/or a wheel barrow or other container that can be used for carrying mulch that will be placed around the trees. Refreshments will be provided during the planting.
This event will be partnering with the Tropical Flowering Tree Society, which is presenting the 75th annual Royal Poinciana Fiesta, from June 1 – 4, 2012, which includes a long weekend of events, along with Royal Poinciana tours of Coconut Grove and Coral Gables. Details here.
