CLARK COUNTY — Students at a local school are partnering with a nonprofit to help make their community more sustainable.
Students at Clark-Shawnee teamed up with Tree-Plenish to plant 700 saplings on May 4, 2024, to offset their school’s energy consumption from the last academic year, according to a media release.
The school hopes to plan the 700 saplings throughout Clark County with the help of neighbors.
Residents can order a sapling to be planted in their yard or sign up to volunteer to plant on the day of the event.
Saplings are $5 and residents can choose between American sycamore, Sugar Maple, and Blue Spruce saplings.
The last day to order a sapling is April 4, 2024.
