Capacity: 200 volunteers
Let's plant Maine’s future, with an artistic twist, to celebrate Earth Week!
Together we’ll plant 500 trees in Maine as part of Living Lands & Waters’ national Two Million Trees project. chickadeeds will be distributing trees from the front plaza of Portland’s centrally located Portland Museum of Art (PMA).
chickadeeds volunteers who sign up to plant and steward tree saplings will receive complimentary admission to the museum while there! Inside the museum, we will learn about the Two Million Trees project, hear about the museum’s newest exhibition Tidal Shift (celebrating young artists working to solve the climate crisis), and enjoy a treasure hunt activity offered by the PMA focusing on “trees" in the collection.
At the conclusion of the event, volunteer families will receive not one, not two, but THREE native sapling trees to take home, plant, and track as magnificent symbols of environmental stewardship.
