You can help the Door County environment by supporting a tree distribution and planting program this fall. The Climate Change Coalition of Door County is distributing 650 trees to various organizations and churches in Door County, including all Door County libraries. The organizations that get trees distributed will do what they wish with the trees, and the libraries will be giving away the trees on September 28th as part of their seed giveaway. Climate Change Coalition Director Nicole Matson says they typically distribute trees in fall or spring because those are the best times to let your trees get established in their ecosystem.
Matson also says that planting a tree is one of the easiest ways you can get started in combatting climate change.
The trees being distributed are all native species, which includes red pine, white pine, white spruce, white cedar, and balsam fir.
