Tree Stewards of Arlington and Alexandria

Learn how to properly plant a tree. Getting your new tree off to a healthy start will help the tree mature to its full size and ensures it will provide environmental, economic, and social benefits throughout its lifetime. This tree planting event will be led by Kurt Moser, a Tree Steward and president of the Four Mile Run Conservancy Foundation in Alexandria (where he also plants and cares for trees on their property).
Wear sturdy shoes or boots and bring water for yourself.
Tree Stewards will provide the main tools, protective eyewear, gloves, and other needed supplies. However, if you have a favorite pair of gloves, a folding knife or a "hori hori" (aka soil knife), please bring those items.
Current Tree Stewards (up to 5) are invited to come meet trainees or for tree planting review.
Both trainees and current Tree Stewards must register for this event.
Columbia Gardens Cemetery is located at 3411 Arlington Boulevard, Arlington, VA 22201.
