Shared by our friend Krisitn Marcell Dear friends of the Hudson River Estuary Program,   The Hudson River Estuary Program's Trees for Tribs initiative offers free native trees and shrubs for streamside buffer planting/restoration projects in the Hudson River Estuary watershed. Since 2007 the program has been responsible for planting more than 24,000 native trees and shrubs along 60,000 feet of stream with the help of thousands of local volunteers.   We are now accepting applications Spring 2012 planting sites.
