This is a major rehab on the existing landscape at the corner of 4th and Inwood Avenue right by the Hilton Garden Inn. The Oakdale Tree Board has 6 Master Gardeners signed up to help out so this will be a very detail oriented planting. It will be a lot more structured than normal but each volunteer will gain a wealth of planting experience and the great satisfaction of a job well done as usual.
