My Brownie Girl Scout troop helped a relatively new community in our city by planting hundreds of trees. We actually planted 4-5 but there were about 200 people out on a chilly Saturday morning to help with this big project. The girls learned the value of trees and how they help the earth. We planted mostly Maples, whose roots grow out and not down (I did not know that!). We were out there for about 3 hours and the temperature never got past 40 so our little toesies were FROZEN! We came home and put on Uggs with socks and had some hot chocolate! Great morning for M. and me!
