NEWSFLASH!
Trees for Watertown had a lively table at Faire on the Square on Sept 19, along with our partner Forests for Watertown next door. We had lots of people stop by for more information, advice and support. We even got 5 new members! Here is some of the action:
Tree of the Month
Autumn color this year was especially beautiful, reminding us how trees add to our enjoyment of the environment. But this maple on Charles River Road put on a great show!
If you have a tree that you would like to see featured here, please send a good (sharp) photo to treesforwatertown@
gmail.com
Is there a tree in Watertown, public or private, that you love and would like to share your appreciation of to a wider audience?
If the tree is visible from the street, help other people appreciate it too via Watertown's own Community Tree Map App!
Send us your favorite Watertown tree to add to our Community Tree Map!
The more entries, the deeper the picture of how much Watertown loves its trees!
Here's what you do:
1. Take a nice photo or two of the tree
2. Send the photos, the tree's location by street address, and a brief statement about why this tree is special to you to trees4watertown@gmail.org.
