Description

Join us as we plant trees at Nokomis Montessori - North Campus, generously sponsored by Delta Air Lines!

This volunteer will lead a classroom of students (with their teacher present for behavior management) through the process of planting a tree! 

We will have a volunteer training in the morning, where we will review How To Plant A Tree The Tree Trust Way and how to effectively engage children in environmental learning.  There will be a printed schedule that gives times and locations for each class.  We will take a lunch break in the middle of the day, and lunch will be provided by the school’s PTA.  At the end of the day, some schools host a school-wide celebration. 

Volunteers should be prepared to:

  • Stand, kneel, and bend over
  • Walk on uneven terrain
  • Use a hand saw and other hand tools
  • Engage with children ages 4-13
  • Have a meaningful impact on their community!

Please remember to wear weather-appropriate clothing that can get dirty, boots or closed-toe shoes, and bring a bottle of drinking water.
