Slough Celebration 2026 Tabling -
Volunteers will join alongside planting program staff to share information about our free opt-in planting programs like our Trees for Residential Streets program (which is currently open for registration) and the Yard Tree Giveaway that occurs every fall! Share your love of trees with folks curious about getting free trees! We'll provide a short training on our programs and informational materials you can use to get people excited about trees.
Each shift lasts 2.5 hours, so you'll have plenty of time before/after your shift to enjoy the celebration.
Before attending any event: if you are not feeling well, have a temperature above 100.4ᵒ – please stay home.
