Leominster Sportsmen’s Association: Shrub and Tree Planting

Sunday, May 19, 2024, 9:00 am to Noon, Leominster Sportsmen’s Association, 1455 Elm Street in Leominster, MA

Volunteers needed to help plant native shrubs and trees at the Leominster Sportsmen’s Association. The Association manages 540 acres of woodlands, as well as Bartlett Pond. Native trees and shrubs that are planted will provide habitat for our local pollinators, birds, and other wildlife, as well as helping to stabilize the pond’s shoreline and prevent bank erosion.

We’ll meet at 8:45am at 1455 Elm Street; view Google map for directions. Some tools and work gloves will be available for use, but if possible, volunteers are asked to bring their own trowels and work gloves. Please dress for the weather, wear sturdy shoes. Consider bug repellent, and sunscreen. Be sure to bring drinking water.

This volunteer event is for ages 8 and up. Youth under age 18 need to be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

This event is hosted by the Nashua River Watershed Association, with support from the US Department of Agriculture. Registration is required for planning purposes. Register online today!
