Hogle Zoo Conservation Action- Tree Planting

October 19 at 10:00 am

Hosted by Jordan River Commission, Utah’s Hogle Zoo
Location TBD

Did you know that the cold months are the best time of year to plant trees? Cold weather and lack of leaves allow the trees to send all of their energy into their roots to get established. They are called tall pot trees because they have a root system of 32 inches to get into the ground water. This event will involve digging deep holes with posthole diggers and planting native trees to improve bank stabilization and create habitat. Not up for digging? Fear not! You can help with getting trees to the diggers, back filling holes, or spreading native seed.
