Volunteers Needed to Water Trees at Ringtail

Newly planted trees at Ringtail Ridge Natural Area are thirsty, and we’re looking for some volunteers to water them. The young bur oaks at the entrance and the cypress tree in the dry pond near the bench are all in need of water. If you hike or bike Ringtail and are willing to help, email [email protected]. It’s best if you can take a gallon jug with some holes in the bottom, fill it with water when you arrive, and leave it at the base of the tree. Let the water slowly soak in and then take the jug with you when you leave. Or, if you have some extra drinking water after your ride or hike, share it with a young, thirsty tree.
