2021 Trees for Kids Planting Project & 30th Anniversary Memorial Tree Planting

On Wednesday, May 12th Waverly-Shell Rock Middle School students and faculty will team with the City of Waverly staff and Trees Forever volunteers to plant over 115 trees along Waverly’s streets, parks and public spaces. Planting will take place in the morning between 8:30 am and 12:00 pm.

At 1:30 pm on Wednesday, May 12th the public is invited to join Waverly Trees Forever Volunteers at the WSR High School for the planting of a memorial Heritage Oak Tree to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Waverly Trees Forever and the Science Club Tree Sale partnership this year!

The City of Waverly would also like to thank everyone who is volunteering to leading the groups of students at each of the planting locations. Additional funding for the Trees and supplies came from Trees Please (A Mid-American Energy grant), Waverly Utilities, and Waverly Trees Forever.

Welcome to Waverly. Great schools. Diverse housing options. Robust job market. Top-flight indoor rec center. Outdoor recreation adventures of all kinds. Prestigious Wartburg College. And a safe and welcoming community of people who value the good life in a beautiful place.
