Help us plant trees for cleaner air and water in Baltimore County!
Do you enjoy being outside in nature and getting your hands into some soil? Join us and make a difference for future generations by planting trees!
More than 36,000 trees have been planted throughout the Gunpowder Watershed by enthusiastic volunteers over the past 34 years, and we need YOUR help to plant even more!
A maximum of 50 people, including GVC staff and volunteer leaders, will be allowed to participate in this event. We are allowing minors (ages 8 – 17) to attend our events as long as there is one parent/legal guardian per four children in attendance.
