The Tree Stewards of Arlington and Alexandria will be participating for the first time in the annual Conservationists of Color Read-a-Thon happening on Sunday, January 26th from 5 to 7 pm at Busboys and Poets in Shirlington. This event brings together community members of all ages to read and listen to passages by and about people of color that have had a huge impact on our field yet are often overlooked. This event is sponsored by the Northern Virginia Conservation Trust (NVCT). NVCT has protected more than 9,000 acres of land across Northern Virginia, both in urban and rural areas. Their conservation work benefits more than 3 million residents in our service area, preserving vital green spaces, wildlife habitats, and natural resources for future generations.
We hope to see you there and you can RSVP on the Conservationists of Color Read-a-Thon. It promised to be an engaging evening.
