The NC Urban Forest Legacy Tree Fund has provided a grant to plant 56 trees in Sunset Park on Saturday, December 5. We need volunteers to help with planting trees, assisting with volunteer check ins, helping Plastic Ocean Project pick up trash and leaving Tree Keeper flyers on doors where trees are planted.
Volunteers will meet at Sunset Park Baptist Church, 231 Central Blvd. at 9:00 am.
Volunteer Victories
To celebrate TD Bank's 10th Tree Day Anniversary and through a grant from the Arbor Day Foundation, ACFT, Plastic Ocean Project volunteers and city staff planted 80 trees and cleaned up litter on Wilmington's Northside neighborhood on November 20th.

Trees provide aesthetic value and cultural identity to the area and are essential in:
