Event Description

Come see the 1 year anniversary of a native tree planting, featuring 120 trees! We invite Tree Week participants to come to the floodplain in Veterans Park, off the walking trail, to view approximately 30 species of Kentucky native trees planted by neighbors in Cumberland Hill last November. The project was funded by LFCUG and Kathy Plomin to improve storm water drainage in compacted soil. Linda Klink will be conducting the tours and provide information about the grant, the trees and the effects of our low summer rainfall. Russ Turpin of EcoGro will be in attendance to discuss the grant, his work in the project and answer any questions about the trees.

This event is kid-friendly.
