Join the Maryland Forest Service, the Catoctin Land Trust, and local community volunteers to plant 12 new native trees at the Town of Sharpsburg’s new Historical Park.

Beyond providing shade, beauty, and wildlife habitat, these new trees will protect the park’s historic spring-fed stream. As a special highlight, we will also plant a historic Maryland Liberty Tree right at the center of the park!

When: Wednesday, October 28, 8:30 AM – 10:30 AM

Where: Town of Sharpsburg Historical Park (Corner of S. Church St. & E. Main St.) — Street parking only.

What to Bring/Wear: Work gloves, long sleeves, and long pants.

Note: This event is rain or shine!

Looking Ahead: Starting this spring of 2027, the Town of Sharpsburg and the Catoctin Land Trust will offer subsidized native trees for local residences, businesses, and places of worship.
