Please join us to help The Nature Conservancy plant 20 disease-resistant elm trees in Czikowsky Hill Preserve. Czikowsky Hill Preserve is owned by the Town of Lyme and The Nature Conservancy with a Lyme Land Trust easement. The Nature Conservancy is doing a series of plantings along rivers and floodplain areas in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont with the intent that elm trees with a proven tolerance to Dutch elm disease will become well-established and ensure this important tree species remains a healthy part of riparian forests throughout the state.
Please bring heavy duty work gloves, sturdy shoes, and water. Bring a shovel if you have one.
Please let us know if you plan to join us: openspace@townlyme.org
