ReLeaf Michigan, a statewide non-profit tree organization, in partnership with the city of Dexter and the DTE Energy Foundation is looking for volunteers to help plant 20 trees at Dexter Mill Creek Park on Saturday morning, Oct. 11th starting at 8:45 a.m. The trees planted along the stream will help to shade the creek and surrounding area, reducing stream temperatures as well as helping to improve water quality
for the creek’s inhabitants and recreational visitors.
Volunteers are asked to wear closed-toe shoes and comfortable clothing and bring a shovel, hard rake, and work gloves if they have them. The group will meet at the gravel parking lot across from 8090 Grand St., Dexter to sign in, enjoy refreshments, and watch a planting demonstration with ReLeaf Michigan’s tree experts. Families are welcome, and the event will occur rain or shine. No planting experience is necessary…
