Ladd’s Addition tree planting
🌳 Ladd’s Addition Tree Planting
Saturday, February 7th
9:00 AM – 11:30 AM (ish)
Meet in front of Floyd’s Coffeehouse & Wine Bar
We’ll be planting 11 saplings throughout Ladd’s Addition. Planting trees is a wonderful way to beautify the neighborhood, meet your neighbors, and have some fun together.
No experience necessary. We’ll start with a short demonstration before getting underway. We’ll divide into small teams and will keep households together as much as possible.
What to bring:
Gloves
If you have them: shovel, pruners, bucket, broom, rake
Rain or shine, the planting will happen.

East garden deadheading
Here we are, end of summer. If the roses are still blooming, you’ll find Kim in the East garden for deadheading! Come on out and help, weather permitting.
FLAG believes in fostering good neighbor relations to keep Ladd's a safe, healthy, and connected neighborhood.
In the past, FLAG has hosted many events to bring our community together. In addition to organizing volunteer rose deadheading throughout the summer months, FLAG has hosted summer picnics with games, holiday potlucks with caroling and horse-drawn wagon rides, and silent auctions.
