The City of Lexington has an ambitious goal for the annual “Reforest the Bluegrass” for next Saturday, April 15: to plant 5-thousand trees. This year’s planting will take place at Hisle Park, on Lexington’s north side. Jennifer Myatt, an environmental initiative specialist for the city, said the volunteer-driven program’s been around for more than two decades.
“Reforest the Bluegrass has been going on since 1999. And it's an effort to get our residents out our citizens out to come help plant trees with us, we plant seedlings, and we make sure that the trees are all native trees.”
