Kick-off for Tree Care Programs on Fourth Avenue

The Park Slope Civic Council\’s Fourth on Fourth Avenue Committee will launch its tree-care and education programs for the thoroughfare, made possible by a grant from the MillionTreesNYC initiative (read more about the grant here).

The six tree beds in front of the Arias building, which is co-sponsoring the event, will be cultivated and planted; work tools from MillionTreesNYC (cultivators, spades, watering buckets) and gloves will be available, as will instruction on tree-bed maintenance. The Arias will be providing the plants for the tree beds and light refreshments for participants. FOFA will be distributing leaflets in the project area, urging other residents, building owners, and merchants to attend the event and learn more about tree care.
