CommuniTree Nursery Public Potting Day
April 9, 2022 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
Help the CommuniTree Nursery reach its goal of 18,000 seedlings potted this spring!
Forest ReLeaf staff welcome participants of all ages and abilities to join us for a spring seedling planting extravaganza. Each year, our non-for-profit Tree nursery grows and sends over 5,000 trees out into the community for public planting projects designed to add green to our urban forest. Before they can grow into full trees, however, the seedlings have to be planted in pots to root out over the summer.
The morning will begin with a brief tour and overview of our nursery grounds and programs, followed by a potting demonstration before we invite folks to get their hands dirty and help set up tree seedlings for success.
Our nursery is located at 2194 Creve Coeur Mill Rd, St. Louis, MO. Parking is available on site along the nursery building. Potting seedlings involves standing and working with soil, so participants should wear comfortable, closed-toed shoes and clothes they won’t mind getting a little dirty. We’ll will provide gloves!
