In collaboration with Councilmember Shahana Hanif and Big ReUse, the Cobble Hill Association is excited to announce a Street Tree Care Event. Join us on Sunday, September 15 at 2pm outside 264 Clinton Street (near the entrance to Cobble Hill Park) where Gil Lopez from Big ReUse will teach us about tree care and hand out equipment and gloves before we get to work taking care of our trees in the neighborhood. We are meeting on Clinton but we will be working on residential blocks as well. Want to clean and mulch the tree outside your home? Come grab some tools and we’ll help you roll the compost bin over, just do your neighbors too! We will be cleaning tree beds, aerating the soil, and laying down compost mulch. All in an effort to keep our trees healthy, able to absorb and retain water, and be naturally fertilized to encourage future growth. Anyone can participate (even kids!).

Feel free to reach out to our local coordinator Louis Cox with any questions or suggestions:

Please RSVP at the link below (optional, not required) so we have an idea of numbers and can plan the amount of tree beds and which blocks we will be able to cover during the event.
