Celebrate 55 Years of the ELC – Join Us for Tree Planting!

🌳 Celebrate 55 Years of the ELC – Join Us for Tree Planting! 🌳

To honor our 55th anniversary, we’re planting 20 new trees on the ELC property! This is especially meaningful as we replace two large ash trees that were recently removed, creating space for a diverse new canopy that will benefit generations to come. 🌱

Thanks to a grant from the MN DNR Division of Forestry and the guidance of Dave Lewis and Anne Matzek from Sargent's Nursery, we’ll ensure each tree is planted properly and learn along the way.

When: Tuesday, September 23 | 8:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. (or until complete)

Planting trees is more than beautification—it’s about creating habitat, improving the environment, and connecting young people with nature. Every tree we plant leaves a lasting legacy.

Bring your family, your curiosity, and your energy—let’s grow something amazing together! 🌲💚
