70 Trees Planted to Make Buffalo Beautiful

BUFFALO, NY - Re-Tree WNY set out Sunday morning to plant 70 trees in local parks.

Many different types of trees, including oaks and ginkgo February, were planted in Schiller Park and Franczyk.

Re-Tree WNY was founded 5 years ago in October when the storm took out thousands of trees across the region. To date, the organization has planted a little over 25,000 and President Paul Maurer says they are only 7000 trees far from reaching their goal.

The organization relies solely on volunteers and donated funds to grow trees for planting.

We lost a tree in front of our house a couple of years after we moved in. The City replaced it with a ginkgo, and we love it. The leaves are truly gorgeous, and my elder daughter loves to remind me that they do really look like a maiden’s hair. Just a warning, though. The tree the City planted was not more than a bare stick, and it has taken several years to look like a real tree. Now that it has come into its own though, the wait’s been worth it.

I think the girls will love their stump stools although I’m sure they’ll miss their tree. We just took down a Manitoba Maple from the backyard and have piles of stumps that we’d like to do something nice with. The tree wasn’t doing well in all the high winds we’ve been having and several times large branches cracked so we needed to take it down, but I miss it.

The kids have already integrated the remaining stump into their play — it was a stage for charades at a birthday party last night.

I hope you love your Ginko. Those are such pretty trees.
