North Scott 7th graders (240 students) are wrapping trees harvested by North Scott 8th graders last week at LL&W’s tree nursery in Davenport, IA. The 7th graders will be joined by many other volunteers over the course of the week to help LL&W prepare 110,000 trees for distribution this April across 16 states.
Living Lands & Waters’ MillionTrees Project was initiated in 2007 to help further our mission to protect, preserve and restore the natural environment of our nation’s major rivers and their watersheds. Our mission is to not only clean up the riverways, but to also enhance the watershed by planting native trees and removing invasive plants.
Involving students teaches them about giving back, community and agriculture.
