Lisa Ballantyne, horticulturist and member of The Village Tree Committee, will lead us on a walk to look at and talk about trees that were planted in Washington Park, Johnson Park and at the Gleason Mansion/ Willow Museum in 2018. The trees were provided through a grant for municipal plantings. We will also look at several interesting trees located in the library's Dinosaur Garden. The committee is working to have Liverpool become designated as Tree City USA. The Tree City USA program has been greening up cities and towns across America since 1976. It is a nationwide movement that provides the framework necessary for communities to manage and expand their public trees. Members from the Village Tree Committee (AKA "Tree Buds") will talk about their efforts prior to the walk. Meet in the lobby-we will be going outdoors immediately, rain or shine.
