The Mapleton Preserve, the former home of Princeton Nurseries, will hold an Arbor Day celebration from 2-4 p.m. on April 13 at the Mapleton Preserve/D&R Canal State Park, 145 Mapleton Road, Kingston.
Karen Linder, president of the Friends of Princeton Nursery Lands, will offer a close look at the trees of the Mapleton Preserve, with a focus on identification, natural history, wildlife value and the ecological role of trees.
The event will start with a tree-planting. The group will then take a walk along the nursery paths. After the walk, refreshments will be available, and each participant will receive a free baby tree to take home.
The event is free and open to all. For more information, contact Karen at 609- 683-0483 or visit www.fpnl.org.
