Indy TreeKeepers, is a program
which allows citizens to actively participate in planting and
conserving trees in Indianapolis.
What is an Indy TreeKeeper?
First and foremost, a TreeKeeper is someone who enjoys the beauty
of trees and wants to join in the experience of planting and
caring for them.
The Indy TreeKeepers program offers
opportunities for you to enhance your knowledge of trees while
helping to improve the environment of Indianapolis!
Volunteers will gather each Saturday morning
at 9am and work until noon, from March through November. Tree
plantings will occur in the spring and fall, while tree
preservation (watering, mulching and pruning) will occur in the
summertime months.
Each Saturday morning at 9am starting on June 23rd, volunteers
will gather at the entrance to the Monon Greenway Trail at
E. 38th Street and Watson Road. We will provide instructions
and all necessary tools at that time.
Those who sign up and volunteer
for three Indy TreeKeeper projects will receive a KIB T-shirt! KIB will underwrite the costs for the Tree Steward Program and Certification for Indy TreeKeepers. Click now for
