This year we were very fortunate to receive a grant from the ACA and LL Bean
that will allow us to obtain NATIVE trees to plant in the old Brown
Bridge Pond area.
Take this opportunity to come out and plant some trees in honor of a loved one
or friend or just to plant trees to make the Brown Bridge Natural Area more beautiful.
No names or tags will be allowed in this public area but we will photograph your
tree and mark the location with a GPS so that in years to come you and your family
can come back to see the trees that you planted.
The TAPC and the BRCS has taken the BB Landing as a pet project and we have had
great success doing amazing things with this once inaccessible landing.
Think about how fantastic it will be to come back in the years to come and see what
these trees look like when they are big and beautiful.
This is a way for you to make a permanent difference in the character
in this jewel of the Boardman River.
