Please remember to dress for the weather, wear long pants, closed-toe shoes, sun protection, and clothes you don’t mind getting dirty. Bring a refillable water bottle if you have one.

We’ll provide tools, gloves, snacks, and everything else!

When you arrive, check in at the green TreeUtah table and then proceed to the meeting location for the welcome ceremony at 10:00 AM. After the welcome, we'll split into groups and each group will do a planting demonstration together and then get planting!
