We will be planting native trees in our habitat restoration area at Sylvan Rodriguez Park. We will provide shovels. Be sure to bring a refillable water bottle, along with shoes, gloves, and clothes that can get muddy. Pre-registration is required. Register by emailing Naturalresources@houstontx.gov to let us know you are planning to help. We would love to see you there!
