City of Forest Day – Marine Park Planting
Plant trees with the Marine Park Alliance and the Natural Areas Conservancy on City of Forest Day!
Join us at the Marine Park Salt Marsh Nature Center and help us plant 250 trees to make Marine Park greener and cooler. It’s a great way to meet neighbors, enjoy the outdoors, and support your local forest. Demonstration and tools will be provided. See you there!
This planting is made possible through generous support from One Tree Planted and in partnership with the NYC Parks Department and the Marine Park Alliance.
