In belated honor of Arbor Day, The City of Hillsboro Water, Public Works and Parks & Recreation Departments are teaming up to provide 350 saplings to community members. The trees will be handed out at drive up, no contact sites throughout Hillsboro and will include informational materials about how to effectively plant the tree, as well as how to conserve water.
Pick up your sapling (varieties include hemlock, cherry, maple, and more) at Jackson Bottom Wetland Exploration Days on Sunday, October 18 or 25, 12-2pm, or at one of multipleย
HillsDOer Month volunteer service eventsย on the last three weekends in October.
