World Water Day Tree Planting 2026

Celebrate World Water Day by volunteering to join us in our cleanup and Tree Planting at Rodney Baber Park! Volunteers of all ages are needed to plant native trees to further urban reforestation efforts in the Wolf River Watershed. Urban trees reduce energy use, remove pollutants, filter stormwater, cool streets, and provide health benefits like reduced stress and improved mental health. We will plant over 1,500 native trees in this two-hour event, helping to diversify a wildlife corridor within the Wolf River floodplain. Planting native trees will complement renovations to the park around the entrance and playground, while aiding in urban reforestation. We welcome all ages to this popular event that teaches tree planting skills, celebrates the future, and enacts restoration. Please RSVP on our website. No matter how you choose to get involved, we can’t wait to see you there!
