    Description

    Reforest the Red Moorhead

    Join us as we plant trees and shrubs along the Red River!

    Development and cultural practices have prevented natural regeneration of trees along the banks of the river. Planting trees in key areas along the Red creates a buffer to maintain riverbank stability, encourage the growth of native plants, improve water quality, and provide habitat for river wildlife. Trees reduce air pollution, cool the atmosphere, prevent soil erosion ease the severity of floods and decrease maintenance costs of roads and parking areas.

    Volunteers will dig holes, plant, mulch and water. Short trainings will be held throughout the event.

    To volunteer for this project, contact Kim at 701.356.8915, Kimberly@riverkeepers.org or by signing up online at: https://www.signupgenius.com/.../8050F4FADA929A3F94...

    For safety reasons, we ask that one adult is present for every five youth K-8.

    Back up weather date is May 28.

    Project partners include: City of Moorhead and River Keepers
