Tree Aftecare at Carroll Park
If you want to learn more, gain experience with tree care, and help trees thrive, then aftercare is right for you!
No experience or training is required to attend an aftercare event. We’ll teach you everything you need to know at the beginning of the event, and our staff and Tree Specialists will provide guidance to volunteers as needed.
Date: October 7, 2021
Time: 3:30pm - 5:30pm
Location: 270 Ellerslie Road
Registration is required so that we can maintain proper physical distance by limiting participants.
Here are some tips to help you have a great volunteer experience:
Be prompt – we’ll teach you what is required for aftercare at the beginning of the event.
Wear sturdy shoes – no sandals or flip-flops, please.
Wear clothing appropriate to the weather – we run events rain or shine! Don’t forget sunscreen.
Bring water – we’ll have a jug to refill your reusable bottle.
High school students can earn volunteer hours at our events. Don’t forget your forms!
We do cancel plantings due to inclement weather – so please check our website or Facebook page on the day-of if you are unsure.
Consider walking, cycling, carpooling, or taking the bus to our events.
