Paw Paw Seed Collection Event at Washington Monument State Park
Tuesday, September 19, 2023
Learn about and help collect Paw Paws, a native fruit tree, with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources Foresters.
As part of the Maryland 5 Million Tree Initiative, native tree seeds are needed to meet the goal of growing and planting five million trees by 2031. During collection events, all fruits/seeds will be sent to the Maryland State Tree Nursery to support future tree plantings around the State. Participate to help raise awareness of the importance of planting native trees and advance the progress of this important work!
Registering is helpful for the event planners.
