Events

Wild Ones Mountain Laurel Chapter will host an educational display as part of this inaugural Arbor Day celebration of trees at the Connecticut College Arboretum.  Our table will provide information about the value of planting native trees and shrubs, particularly keystone species, and ways to incorporate them into home landscapes that are both beautiful, practical and functional from an ecosystem standpoint.  There will be free tours of three different Arboretum collections, all of which include mature native trees in designed or naturalistic landscape settings.  Stop by our table on Chapel Green and see displays by other partner organizations:  Bartlett Tree Experts, New London Trees and CT DEEP's Forestry Division.  See link for a complete schedule of tree-themed events and activities plus suggestions for parking.
