The Lynden land team has been hosting monthly volunteer work days for several years, but occasionally we have larger projects that fall outside that structure.
This fall we hope to add about 30 new trees to the Lynden landscape. While much of our 40 acres consists of sculptures on mowed lawn and landscaped gardens, we also have a robust tree catalog of nearly 100 different species. With so many trees, there is constant maintenance and replenishing to be done, as some trees age or get sick and new ones get planted, strengthening the various ecosystems. Tasks that will be completed consist of digging holes, moving and planting trees ranging from 3-5 feet in height, and mulching them in to protect their roots.
Volunteers are encouraged to bring gardening gloves and digging tools (if you have them). Water, snacks, and additional tools will be provided!
