The annual Take Root program was in full effect Saturday at Norm Jary Park.
Dozens of people, many of them high school and university students, were on hand in the morning to plant trees, shrubs and wildflowers.
The next community planting day is this Saturday, Oct. 5, at Kortright Hills, south of Teal Drive.
On Oct. 19 planting will take place at Eastview Community Park.
Times for both events are 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
People are invited to drop by for as long as they want.
High school students looking for volunteer hours are invited to bring their log sheet to any Saturday plant.
