A tree planting and tree giveaway at Naaman Williams Park on Matilda Avenue will mark the township’s commemoration of Arbor Day.
The April 27 event is scheduled to be held from 10 a.m. to noon.
The township Shade Tree Commission is sponsoring the event, at which 225 tree seedlings will be given away. The seedling distribution is part of the New Jersey Tree Recovery Campaign to help re-green communities hit by Super-storm Sandy, according to a press release about the event. This is the last year of this state-sponsored campaign.
