The Sustainability Committee of the City of Shaker Heights in coordination with the Nature Center at Shaker Lakes will be sponsoring a planting event at our Grow not Mow Site #2 on the corner of South Park Boulevard and Lee Road in honor of National Public Lands Day. This parkland is located in the floodplain of the Doan Brook, and we are working to restore and enhance biodiversity in this area to make it a better habitat for pollinators, wildlife, and people. Our plantings will also help to absorb and filter stormwater runoff and prevent soil erosion.

Please bring gloves for planting trees and dress for the weather, rain or shine. Team leaders will show volunteers how to plant our native species of trees and shrubs. All ages welcome!

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Cuyahoga Arts & Culture, the Nature Center at Shaker Lakes, the City of Shaker Heights, and all of our wonderful sponsors, partners and volunteers for making events like this one possible. Thank you!
