I'm giving up on a black out card for #bookbingonw2023 because I'm heading on vacation and will only be reading novels aimed at angsty teens for the duration. (But I think I still did ok.) Thanks @SeaArtsLectures @SPLBuzz for the summer adventure!

In one weekend, Tacoma Tree Foundation distributed and planted 493 free trees, the largest tree giveaway the city has ever seen! https://t.co/HL8LeoscGv

@pheeoooners @spiphy that's what I was going to say! If you replant them @spiphy make sure to give them a nice massage so their roots are loose and not planted back in a chunk.

@theurbanologist Pro tip: cream cheese on pretzels is the bomb. Feeds the emotions more thoroughly

From earlier this year, a Jeff Speck-led replanting plan for Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Still not sure about the idea of planting trees close to mimic forest conditions but I dig the other "new" rules. The New Rules of Urban Reforestation https://t.co/VhYHAmbuRX

[King Conservation District @King_CD_WA]

Thanks @KenmoreWA, KCD staff and volunteers for a successful tree giveaway! 600+ native trees will be added to yards and businesses across Kenmore increasing urban tree canopy-providing more shade, cleaner air, happier people, and reduced stormwater runoff https://t.co/JOkOeShyej

Sweet @King_CD_WA project last weekend in @KenmoreWA. Some dancing, some rain, some pizza and lots (630!) of trees and smiles. https://t.co/RypCyKVFWX

Maybe not headline worthy but the city did just pass a new tree ordinance, hire a new SDOT commish (one of the 9 agencies that oversees city trees), and work w/ME to maintain fruit trees! https://t.co/cwpL06F87H

[Ellen Arnstein @Lenni825]

It's here! Inventory and monitor your trees! Don't move firewood! (Because there's really no way to protect your trees) https://t.co/UW5RuhPg1C

Very cool visualization! https://t.co/vkt9K9sDZz
