Plant-a-Tree
2021: Through the 30th annual Plant-a-Tree program, the Oswego County Soil and Water Conservation District and the Cornell Cooperative Extension of Oswego County 4-H Program distributed 4,287 Norway spruce tree seedlings and educational materials on April 19 and 20 to students in grades Pre K through 5. 305 teachers registered for the program which was funded by Exelon Generation and the Oswego County Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs.
The goal of Plant-a-Tree is to have students gain an understanding of the importance of trees in our environment and provide them with a hands-on opportunity to be environmental stewards by planting their own tree.
