Annual Arbor Day Tree Planting

The Rock, Sheridan Road, Evanston, IL 60208 map it

Leave your mark on campus and join Facilities Planning & Sustainability and the Northwestern Grounds Crew for a tree planting in celebration of Arbor Day. If you’ve never planted a tree or even a sprout of any kind, no worries! The Grounds crew pros will be on site providing guidance and support. This is an opportunity to contribute to our campus landscape, enjoy the spring weather, and spend time reconnecting to the Earth! 


There will be 2 tree planting shifts on Friday, April 24th: 10am-12pm and 12pm-2pm. This event takes place on the Evanston campus and registration is required. Please complete the registration form to reserve your spot. 

 

Participants for both sessions will meet at the Rock in front of University Hall. From there, you will be guided to the tree planting locations.
