Will you help water new street trees?

Trees planted this year and last need help from the people who live or work near them.

From the Richmond Tree Stewards:

The forecast for the coming week is HOT and most parts of Richmond have not received an inch of rain in the last week and so…

Trees planted this year and last need help from the people who live or work near them.
A few minutes of your time and 15 – 20 gallons of water is all that’s needed to help these new trees thrive.

Watering once a week would be best now;  every two weeks is OK.

If you don’t have a watering bag, a slow trickle from the garden hose works well.

Let it run long enough to deliver at least 15 gallons.
