Getting a jump on Arbor Day this year, a few dozen people showed up to plant about 50 bare-root trees at North Burial Ground in Providence. It was a splendid morning, and the work went quickly and easily with the help of the Providence Parks Department staff. It still takes a while to plant so many trees, but we're all looking forward to their leafing out and developing to their full natural height and spread.
