VOLUNTEER YARD RENOVATIONS AND TREE PRUNING
PlantAmnesty organizes one-day volunteer yard renovations for
people without the means to do the job themselves, so that good pruning is
available to all.
Once a year, PlantAmnesty gardeners meet to do for gardens what
our arborists do for the trees on Arbor Day. It's a cross between a
party and a yard clean-up. Yeah, that's it, it's a Garden Party.
Mostly, we weed like dirt devils, deadwood 'til the carpal tunnel kicks up,
and kill what needs to be killed (plant-wise, that is).
With ten or twelve other dedicated gardeners we utterly transform a needy
and deserving landscape in one sunny (and it's always sunny) afternoon.
It is extremely gratifying. Experienced gardeners share with the new kids.
Hobbyists mingle with the pros. You get to check out how others rig
their trucks, what tools they use, and especially - you professional
gardeners - separate your charity work from your regular work!
A PlantAmnesty arborist will do the same for trees. Up to twenty companies gather to prune deserving trees for their community. For Greater Seattle and Pierce County only.
