April 6th: Camden Tree Planting along N. 35th Street
NJTF’s Urban Airshed Reforestation Program planted 12 large street trees with help from 37 volunteers!
April 8th: 150 Trees to Shade Weequahic Park (Newark) after Hurricane Sandy
This park lost 200 trees in Superstorm Sandy. The NJTF’s Green Streets Crew was proud to plant 150 new trees to reforest this space!
April 11th: Newark’s Arbor Day Celebration with Rutgers and NJTF
NJTF’s Newark Renaissance Trees Program planted 28 large trees along the streets of Rutgers Newark with over 40 volunteers!
