Event Type

Join us to plant native bushes and trees at Quarry Lane Pocket Park and Community Garden!

North County Land Trust has been funded through the Dream it Create it grant to create a pocket park at 5 Quarry Lane in Fitchburg.  We have worked closely with Busy Bees Preschool and Growing Places to establish a community garden and worked with an Eagle Scout to build a nature loop trail on the back half of the property and now are able to create an inviting pocket park at the front of this land.

When finished, the park will include native trees, bushes, and perennials, a painted rock garden, sitting spots, and nature-based play opportunities for all to enjoy.  We have an order of native bushes and trees arriving soon and need your help to dig holes and plant! Please bring a shovel if you have one.

Come to dig and plant, stay for PIZZA! Please register to let us know to expect you, this will make sure there is pizza for everyone!

If you aren’t able to join for session 1, please consider joining for session 2 from 5-7:30pm, or join in for both if you can.

 

This project is funded by MassDevelopment/TDI and the Barr Foundation.  This program is one component of a broader “TDI Creative Cities” initiative to boost arts-based economic development.
