About The Event

Calling all tree friends! Join us at this beautiful park in Wolf Trap, VA for a fun filled morning collecting acorns at Meadowlark Botanical Gardens. The staff at Meadowlark has made a tree map for us to explore! This is an excellent way for adults and children alike to learn a quick easy action that is great for the health of our local streams. Seeds collected will go to Virginia’s state nursery that grows trees for reforesting efforts across the region.

We’ll provide all the event supplies and instructions. Once registered, please expect a reminder email on the Wednesday before the event with more information regarding what to expect and our volunteer release waiver. You are responsible for making sure your guest(s) get that reminder email. We can’t wait to see you!
