Care of New Trees (updated 7/8/22)
- We received 4 new trees that were planted in April. A couple of them have been supported with twine and stakes. The trees need to have some compost and mulch placed around them and need to be fertilized. We have the fertilizer spikes available and some mulch. More mulch and the compost could come for free from the city of Cedar Rapids.

The following needs could be split up between people or done by one person:

NEED someone to add compost and mulch around the trees.

NEED someone to collect compost and mulch from the city of Cedar Rapids.

NEED someone to add water the new trees periodically.
