Help heal the land! Join us for a day of tree planting in the Poudre Watershed.
Join the Coalition for the Poudre River Watershed (CPRW) and fellow community members for a day of tree planting. In the wake of the High Park Fire of 2012 and the historic Cameron Peak Fire of 2020, which burned over 208,000 acres, CPRW has been working with private landowners to restore land by planting native ponderosa pine seedlings. Connect with the land, get your hands dirty, and help heal the watershed!
Date: October 26, 2024
Time: 8:00am-4:00pm (may end sooner depending on how fast trees get planted and how many people participate)
Meeting Location: Vern's Place - 4120 W County Rd 54G, Laporte, CO 80535 (carpooling is highly encouraged for this event!)
What you need to bring: Sunscreen, layers, hat, sturdy shoes/boots, gloves, plenty of water, snacks, and a lunch

Tree planting requires bending over, squatting, digging and other physical activity, all of which will occur outside and within a burned area. Please be prepared for this type of work. Children 14+ are welcome with a parent/guardian.
