65 Trees for 65 Years – April 26
Thank you to the Returning Peace Corps Volunteers (RPCVs) and Jefferson Manor neighbors who planted 65 native trees, in addition to various perennials, at Jefferson Manor Park on April 26. This number signifies the 65th anniversary of the Peace Corps.
The native species will provide wildlife corridors and shade while sequestering carbon to combat climate change. Fairfax ReLeaf donated the native saplings and Fairfax County Park Authority provided the perennials from native plant nursery Earth Sangha.
