\"Family<\/a>After an intense few months of\u00a0organizing\u00a0and 8 weeks of planting trees this winter, 68,000 loblolly pine seedlings were planted on 104 acres of residential property in Bastrop County affected by the Labor Day wildfires of 2011.\u00a0 This would not have been possible without the Texas Conservation Corps<\/a>, a program of American YouthWorks who provided 5 weeks of labor, and the 250 Central Texans who volunteered their Saturday mornings to reforest residential property. \u00a0THANK YOU to those who volunteered their time to come plant trees with us! \u00a0We are incredibly grateful for the overwhelming support from Bastrop County, its\u2019 residents, and program partners to ensure the first year of \u00a0tree planting through the Bastrop County Community Reforestation Program<\/a> was a success.<\/p>\n

If you missed helping our Bastrop neighbors this winter or\u00a0would like to get your hands dirty with us next year, volunteer recruitment will begin this fall.\u00a0 Our goal will dramatically increase to plant over a half million trees next year and we will coordinate at least 20 volunteer events with 1,300 volunteers in Bastrop County!<\/p>\n

If you’re itching for a way to chip in now, you can volunteer to plant loblolly seedlings at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center<\/a>. \u00a0If you come back and volunteer with us in the fall, you could plant the very same trees that you seeded! \u00a0Now that\u2019s cool! \u00a0View the PDF linked below for information about how to volunteer.
