Somerville to Celebrate Arbor Day at City Hall December 19

Join the City of Somerville for an Arbor Day celebration on Monday, December 19, from 11 a.m. to noon, in the Aldermanic Chambers at City Hall. The event will include a presentation and discussion about urban forestry and an official proclamation read by Mayor Curtatone. Light refreshments will be served.

The City of Somerville is committed to increasing its tree canopy, and to that end, hired its first full-time Arborist this fall. Join us on December 19 to meet City Arborist Vanessa Boukili, and to learn more about the City’s urban forestry efforts.
