Twenty seedlings and over two dozen seed pods were handed out free to McCauley residents during the Big Dig on October 1. Part of the “Trees Please” initiative of McCauley Revitalization, the intention is for participating residents to nurture a tree for a year.

People taking seedlings signed up with their contact information and where they intend to plant their tree. Information on how to care for their tree was also provided.

Many passers-by from other areas stopped by Caboto Park to see what the Big Dig was all about. Hopefully, it will lead to the appearance of many new trees in the near future.
