The planting <br /> will take place on the 1800 block of Harris Street and around the corner onto East 19th Avenue. <br /> Tools, gloves and snacks will be provided. <br /> NeighborWoods is a volunteer program that brings together neighbors, businesses and <br /> other groups to plant and care for street trees.
