Please click on the picture and select “all sizes” option to see the plan in full size and greater clarity with the names of all the plantings.

We are a bit away from the costs of getting the project done but I’m confident that some of the folks that dig the site will step up.  So far Doug figures we have enough to cover the costs of the plants and trees (thanks to the donation of a Tree and Doug’s services along with Aaron Burke’s pledge of a backhoe and labor.  Now we just need enough to cover the cost of the mulch, loam and a few shrubs.

Thanks so much to Doug from Landesign.biz Aaron Burke and everyone who has contributed.

GMG Tree Project Site

Yesterday morning I went over with Doug Cook to survey the site for our tree project.   Doug is calling Dig Safe and checking with the City engineers as far as any easements.  Doug has some exciting plans which we will put up for everyone to see here.
