HGA with Groundwork Milwaukee

HGA recently partnered with Groundwork Milwaukee, the City of Milwaukee, and leaders of the Amani neighborhood for a day of action that featured the planting of 9 trees and the revival of 12 garden beds.

HGA provided pro bono services to Groundwork where we help select the types of trees to be planted and their locations.
Tyler Smith in our Minneapolis group created a presentation that showed the residents of the neighborhood how the trees would look at different ages and in different seasons. We then went out on Arbor Day to help plant those trees at Moody Park in the Amani Neighborhood.
