West Mankato Trail
Mankato, MN 56001

Help us build a biodiverse and resilient urban tree canopy! Volunteers will plant large-stock trees into pre-dug holes; this work will include loosening root balls, filling holes with soil, watering, and spreading mulch around newly planted trees. They will cool and clean the air, provide shade, and beautify the community.

West Mankato Trail is part of Mankato’s popular trails network. Trees will be planted along the trail that goes through a residential neighborhood, providing additional shade and cooling to trail users and nearby residents, as well as diversifying the tree canopy.
