ARBOR DAY TREE WALK & TREE TRAIL

Come learn more about why New Albany was selected in this year’s TREE CITY USA program!

On Arbor Day, April 30th, City Arborist Greg Mills will host the annual Arbor Day Tree Walk!

This free, guided tour starts at 5pm on Friday, April 30th. Participants will meet at the fountain behind the Scribner House (across from the YMCA).

The walk will take you around areas of downtown New Albany and teach you to identify local trees, learn about what trees are used in urban settings, and learn about the benefit of having a good urban forest. Participants may also get a sneak peek at the New Albany Tree Trail. This project aims to place markers on roughly 110 different trees in the downtown, allowing residents to scan a code that will teach them more about that specific species of tree.
