Description

Join us at Wormsloe Historic Site to plant live oak trees along the famous avenue! This special planting is part of a long-term vision to keep the historic avenue lined with healthy majestic oak trees. 30 new trees will be planted this year, with another 30 trees in 2023 and 15 trees in 2024. In total, we will replace 75 trees that have died from past hurricanes and disease. Volunteers will plant a part of history and receive free admission to the park! Please come prepared to work outside, wearing boots and a jacket. We will provide snacks and water, but we always welcome bringing your own reusable water bottle. We will also provide all gloves and tools necessary. Public restrooms are available nearby at the Visitor's Center. Savannah Tree Foundation protects and grows Chatham County's urban forest through tree planting, community engagement, and advocacy.
