SUMMARY:Neighbors Planting trees at Bethany Cemetery with TreeFolks
DESCRIPTION:TreeFolks is partnering with the Bethany Cemetery Association and Black Austin Tours to plant trees in Bethany Cemetery. This is a precious 6-acre green space in a rapidly gentrifying neighborhood. Many ancient trees were lost in the recent hailstorm and need to be replaced. TreeFolks is planting and providing follow-up care for three years and helping to reverse historic inequities in funding and resources in the Eastern Crescent. \nOur events are family-friendly\, and no experience or tools are needed. We will train everyone at the beginning of the event\, and provide all tools\, materials\, gloves\, water\, and snacks. \nVolunteers will have an opportunity to tour the cemetery during the event with Black Austin Tours. \nBethany Cemetery is Austin’s oldest Black cemetery. The Mission of the Bethany Cemetery Association\, Inc. is to preserve and protect the rich historic heritage of Bethany Cemetery. We are dedicated to preserving the history through preservation and community engagement.  Contact:  bethanycemeteryofaustin@gmail.com \nTreeFolks engages thousands of volunteers and community groups to plant trees in public parks\, preserves\, and schoolyards. We also distribute free trees\, provide free education\, and offer large-scale reforestation services. Our mission is to empower Central Texans to build stronger communities through planting and caring for trees. Contact: volunteer@treefolks.org \nBlack Austin Tours was founded by Dr. Javier Wallace\, a native Austinite with deep roots in the city. A Ph.D. graduate from the University of Texas at Austin\, Javier combined his passion for history and his commitment to the community to create Black Austin Tours in 2019. Each of our guides has a strong background in history\, a connection to Austin through their education\, and\, most importantly\, a shared love for this city and the stories it holds. We’re excited to share them with you. Contact: julia@blackaustintours.com \nThis event is free and open to the public\, but you must register to attend. If you have any questions or concerns\, please contact Gillian\, email: volunteer@treefolks.org\, cell: (512 )761-8738
