Using funds from our 5×5 Indy grant and working with the Purdue Extension, Urban Patch will be providing FREE redbud trees for Mapleton-Fall Creek residents and businesses on Saturday, October 17, 2015 at the Indiana State Fairgrounds. Please use our online contact form to REQUEST A TREE.
Below is the link to inform you of the project and to sign up for a tree.
I could use volunteers to help me handing out the trees so if you can help, sign up on the volunteer link. If you can’t give your time and would like to do something to help us make the inner city better, donate funds for the next tree planting to occur in the Spring of 2016.
Leave a message on the sign-up link to let us know what you think of the project and we appreciate any suggestions you have to make this project better. Stay tuned for the first annual Red Bud Event in the Spring of 2016!
