Past: Tree Planting 101

Join MDC forester Jen Behnken as she teaches about planting trees. It seems so easy; you dig a hole and put the tree in the ground. However, there is more finesse than that when it comes to planting. Learn a few elements about what you need, planning your tree planting event, how to plant, watering, mulching, follow up tree care, and understanding tree physiology to make informed decisions for what your new tree(s) need to grow and thrive. This program is part of the Cape Nature Center Native Plant Seminar, a week of virtual and in person programs leading up to a native plant sale on Saturday March 16th. This program will be held on the day of the plant sale.
