  Up With Trees
Description:
Field crew members regularly plant, stake, mulch, water, & prune trees in the field depending on seasonal needs. Our yearly planting season begins in October and ends in April.

We've partnered with the City of Tulsa to reach a goal of planting 20,000 trees by 2010! Because of that goal, we have many plantings on our calendar, often multiple plantings on the same day. To view specific opportunities please check our online calendar conveniently located at www.upwithtrees.org and contact volunteer coordinator April Woodul by phone, 918-610-8733, or email, april@upwithtrees.org, to let us know which location/date you would like to join! We update the calendar regularly. We would love to have you aboard!
