Kansas City WildLands and Jackson County Parks and Recreation are offering the public an opportunity to remove invasive red cedars and take them home to decorate for the holidays! When you take home a tree, you’ll not only make your house smell great but you’ll be helping restore wild places to their original health!
Pl...ease bring a handsaw (no chainsaws or axes!) and rope to tie your tree to your vehicle. Sturdy boots and work gloves are recommended! Pre-cuts will be available, and volunteers will be there to help you cut and tie down your tree if needed. A fire and hot cider will be available to warm you up… a fun day for all!
Kansas City WildLands suggests a minimum $10 donation for each tree, with proceeds benefiting natural community restoration throughout the Greater Kansas City region.
For more information, contact Linda at 816-561-1061, ext. 116 or linda@bridgingthegap.org.
Chop down your own Christmas tree and support local conservation efforts!
