Today ten RFH R&S members ages 8 to adult joined forces with other volunteers to work on a
SOLV project planting 140 native trees and shrubs to restore the
urban watershed at Tryon Creek. We learned the correct way to plant trees and shrubs and the importance of mulching around the plants to keep invasive species at bay. We had a great time, finished planting just before the rain started, and enjoyed the spiced apple cider and sweet treats provided by the church that was the location host for this SOLV event. We're looking forward to another Tryon Creek planting with SOLV next weekend! Over time, these plantings will improve water quality, create wildlife habitat, and store carbon to slow climate change.
