The Forest Recovery Project has everything you need to get your hands dirty this Earth Day weekend. Under the umbrella of the Lakeshore Natural Resource Partnership, the Forest Recovery Project aims to help educate the community about what Door County used to be like before much of the land became used for agriculture and other uses. The organization is helping restore some of these forests through coordinated tree planting efforts like this Saturday at Mud Lake just north of Baileys Harbor. By planting a mixture of conifer plants, FRP Coordinator Bob Bultman hopes they can jumpstart the process of returning Door County’s forests to their former glory.
The Forest Recovery Project is hosting a pair of tree planting events on Friday and Saturday at Mud Lake along Highway 57 from noon to 4 p.m.
