IFGU – Tree Planting Success!

February 15th was our big day for the Invest From the Ground Up Community Tree Planting Program and it was a smashing success.  The final numbers will be out next month, but it is safe to say that over 1,000 volunteers came out, and 1,264 trees were planted at 19 unique projects. Read the full recap here.

 When the trees we planted are fully grown, they will remove 53.72 tons of CO2 and 12,640 pounds of pollutants every year!
