Old North Neighborhood Tree Blitz

About this event

Join the Blitz in Old North this Saturday! Neighborhood Foresters meet every third Saturday in Old North at the Old North 13th Street Community Garden from 10am to noon.

STL Neighborhood Foresters (STLNF) lead volunteer events in several STL neighborhoods - including Old North! They partner with resident volunteers to take care of critical care tasks like watering and mulching young trees.

STL Neighborhood Foresters rely on both partner groups and individual volunteers to fill the gaps in tree care, with a focus on organizing neighborhood volunteers to help care for their City trees. Trees planted in the city have a high risk of dying in their first 3 years - watering is critical.

Thank you to all the volunteers who have helped to take care of the tree canopy in the neighborhood - here are some photos from past Blitz’s!

Check out this online tool to track watering needs and easily connect volunteers with trees near them in need. - https://www.metrotreelc.org/stl/index.html ...
