On behalf of Root for Trees, the City of Edmonton and myself, I want to thank everyone who came out for the Tree Bagging event at the Muttart Conservatory on Sunday, May 1st. In about 2 hours the 55+ people in attendance bagged about 12,000 trees for the Grade 1 students. Many hands make light work of a big project. Thank you so much for your help with this project. You are awesome!!
