Today was the fall tree planting for the Newton Tree Conservancy. 76 new street trees were planted in 6 neighborhoods by their residents, volunteers and members of the Tree Conservancy with some help from the City Urban Forestry and Parks and Recreation depts.

I was with the group around Woodlawn Dr. We planted 12 trees in about an hour and a half.

Unfortunately Newton is removing more trees that it can plant so these efforts help to reduce the impact and maintain our urban forest.
