Arboretum Planting

Arboretum Planting
We will be planting 32 fruit and nut trees to fully designate our campus as a Level 1 ArbNet certified arboretum. We will have an Indigenous tree walk, an edible orchard walk, a native NH tree walk, and fun stuff for kids of all ages once we are finished. We hope that these additions will make our campus more inviting to curious visitors and lifetime devotees,
We would love your help to get started with the planting and to create an informational podium. We have other long-term volunteer opportunities to offer as well if Arboriculture interests you!
If you are curious about tree planting, tree pruning, edible orchards, native NH plants, or anything tree-related, feel free to stop by to learn and lend a helping hand.

The Squam Lakes Association is dedicated to conserving for public benefit the natural beauty, peaceful character, and resources of the watershed. In collaboration with local and state partners, the SLA promotes the protection, careful use, and shared enjoyment of the lakes, mountains, forests, open spaces, and wildlife of the Squam Lakes Region.
