Baltimore Country paints 300 trees to kick off Earth Day goal

TOWSON, Md. (AP) – Baltimore Country officials say that they’ve

palnted the first 300 trees as part of a goal to plant 5,000 in honor of Earth day
2021 in April.
The country issued a news release Monday saying that 325 trees were
planted at apartment and townhome complexes in Cockeysville, Dundalk and
Essex in partnership with a local property owner.
The news release said the trees were planted by contractors working
for the country as part of its Tree Canopy Expansion program. The country
says the trees help reduce runoff into the Chesapeake Bay and also provide
other environmental benefits.
The program lets property owners sign up to have trees planted by
country crews at no cost.
“We remain committed to building and innovating toward a cleaner,
greener, and more sustainable Baltimore Country. Like many jurisdictions,
Baltimore Country’s tree canopy has diminished over the decades, and tree
plantings on private property is an important tool to combat climate change,
strengthen environmental resiliency and help beautify our neighborhoods,”
said Country Executive, John Olszewski.
