1500 trees planted at Sugarcreek!

Just finished a tree planting at Sugarcreek MetroPark.  An old pasture was planted with about 1500 native trees.  About 60 volunteers came and everyone did a great job!  Replanting this field will create a larger block of forest that will be great for forest dependent wildlife not to mention the trees themselves.  Many are not reproducing well on their own.



Tree planted include white oak, red oak, swamp white oak, redbud, flowering dogwood, pignut hickory, Ohio Buckeye, American Elm, sycamore, and bur oak.
