Tree Planting In Silver Spring, Maryland
 

  
Silver Spring, Maryland

A Riparian Buffer on Sligo Creek
Our Project:

Partnering with MNCPPC, Trees for the Future helped in planting a riparian buffer along an open flood plain of Sligo Creek in Silver Spring.

Situation: Deer and invasive weeds make reforestation difficult in many of Maryland's parks. To minimize erosion and stabilize the flood plain, we helped in planting, mulching, and caging 200 seedlings of native trees.
 

We particularly thank Jeff Mason and the people at MNCPPC


Luis Lora and his daughter, volunteers for
Trees for the Future, are busy at work

We Thank All Volunteers for Making This Such a Successful Project
