🍂With a great group of volunteers on a windy and sunny Saturday, we (LCA and Audubon Vermont) were able to get about 175 trees and shrubs in the ground along Lewis Creek and protected with tree tubes - an amazing effort! Thanks to everyone who joined us!

🌳We still have another ~75 trees and shrubs to get planted and protected and would love more volunteers!

🗓We are planning to finish planting this Wednesday, October 21st at 10:00 am with Audubon staff. We would love to have some more help!

📝We don't have an official sign-up for this planting. If you would like to attend, please contact Sara directly - sara(at)lewiscreek.org by Wednesday at 8:00am so we can get you directions to the planting location!

Kate was presented with the 2026 Local Leadership Award, an incredibly deserving honor, as anyone who has had the privilege to work with Kate can attest to! Congratulations Kate!
