One great way to get volunteers engaged in a community is to invite them to help plant trees along a stream. Not only is it fun and rewarding, it turns out it’s also beneficial for the fish!
Sometimes this is done to help repair a severely damaged area like in the case of streamsides after Hurricane Helene. And sometimes it is done to help shade stream reaches that get too hot for trout.
This Arbor Day, celebrate by planting a tree or maybe even two. There might even be a Trout Unlimited tree planting event happening near you.
