It's that time again, tree huggers: Friends of Trees is comin' to the neighborhood for its annual planting party! This Saturday, join your neighbors and plant some trees in Kenton, University Park, St. Johns and Cathedral Park. Next weekend, bring your shovels and spades to Boise, Eliot, Humboldt and King. (Time and location info on the Friends of Trees calendar)

We've written about these annual plantings in the past, and how beneficial they are for the neighborhoods in which they take place. If you've never taken part, we highly recommend it, for you and your green thumb.
