CAs part of our Volunteer Work Day at the SAHC Community Farm, we will focus on planting 250 fruit trees in the NEW Food Forest! Help support fresh healthy produce in your community, and see your efforts grow in SAHC’s future U-pick orchard. We will plant 12 different varieties of apple trees – great for everything from fresh eating to making sauce or cider.
Each tree is about 3-4 ft. tall, and holes will be prepared in advance – so there will be minimal digging involved. No experience needed. The weather has been soggy today but should be beautiful on Friday.
If you want to plant a tree and make a positive impact on the environment and community health for Earth Month, this is your opportunity!
