Attention: Wildwood Tree Waterers – We need to Start Watering our Fall plantings.
The City Forester inspected our Central Park 2023 & our Fern Gully 2024 trees we planted in the Fall and said they need to be watered ASAP! A dry Fall and not much snow this winter has resulted in dry soil conditions. Please start watering the trees every second week, 15 – 20 litres/tree. If we haven’t had much rain by July then we’ll need to water weekly.
Spread the word to other waterers. Let’s work together to grow Wildwood’s forest.
A new initiative of the board this year is to celebrate Wildwood through the arts. Pam Gerbrandt is a Winnipeg printmaker who creates images through a direct print making process with trees. When a tree is being removed she takes a cross-section of it and prepares the slab through a painstaking process of charring and delicate carving to reveal the growth rings. After that the slab is inked and serves as the negative for the image.
Having a long connection to the wildwood community and place, Pam has offered to make a special “Wildwood” limited edition just for us from a neighbourhood tree! This will be a limited print of 30 pieces and 20% of the proceeds will go to the community centre to support our efforts to replant and maintain our urban forest. Each print will likely be 30”x30” and will be available for purchase unframed for $250.
Details regarding ordering, size, and delivery will be in the May Woodsy.In the meantime, take a few minutes to see her work and find a place on your wall for a new striking image!
