The Jones County Conservation Department is looking for interested volunteers to assist with “Derecho Recovery Tree and Shrub Planting” days at Central Park and the Grant Wood Trail in Martelle. Jones County Conservation received a 2021 Derecho Community Forestry Grant to purchase native trees to replace those lost during the 2020 Iowa August Derecho event. Central Park’s tree and shrub planting day will be Thursday, September 30th. Volunteers can meet at the Jones County Central Park Maintenance Shop, near park entrance, at 10 AM. Wear clothing that can get dirty and bring your own pair of work gloves. All other equipment will be provided. After introductions, project orientation, and general tree and shrub planting instructions, volunteers will help place trees and shrubs into pre-dug holes, cover planted trees and shrubs with soil and mulch, and water plantings. Martelle’s Grant Wood Trail Section planting day will take place on Wednesday, October 6th at 10 AM and 1 PM.
