Each year there is a big tree planting event on some county acreage near my house. Mostly all volenteers and the seedlings are donated. The trees are planted by local school kids, boy scouts and others including the national guard folks. One of the tractor clubs I belong to takes tractors and trailers to haul the kids a mile or so to the planting area and back.Last year they planted 7000 trees. We done this on Thursday and they canceled Fridays event due to expected high wind and rain. We got 3 1/2 inchs of rain on friday and it washed some of the roads out so Sat was canceled also. Another 1 1/2 inches on Sat! Lots of fun and the kids really enjoy seeing the tractors.
