Forest Fridays: Highlands Park Ensley Tree Maintenance

Help us maintain trees we’ve planted in Highlands Park in Ensley, also known as McMahon Park near the Crossplex. Did you know that Cool Green Trees is committed to caring for the trees we plant up to 2-3 years after planting? These early years are crucial for the long-term viability of newly planted trees–and given we’ve planted over 1,500 trees, we need your help!

We’ll be adding some mulch and topsoil around our trees at this event. There is a parking lot in the park near Avenue T (entrance from the alley off Ave. T).

Important Details: Please register in the RSVP link below, or email us at CGToutreach@cawaco.org.*

When: Friday, June 12, 9:00 a.m.-11:00 a.m.

Address: 2720 Avenue W., Birmingham, AL 35208
