Things to Do Tomorrow

For everyone wanting to get out and revel in spring, tomorrow presents some opportunities to do just that. 

• There is another installment of the Oakdale Rewilding Project to reinvigorate our urban forest. On Saturday morning, volunteers will be planting native trees and shrubs. The work begins at 10:00 a.m. and continues until 12:30 p.m. Wear sturdy shoes and bring work gloves, if you have them. 

• There's a second opportunity to get your hands dirty for the public good at 10:00 a.m., when Friends of the Public Square (FOPS) and the Hudson Rotary Club invite volunteers to Mulch the Park. The task will be spreading 145 cubic feet of mulch, donated by Almstead Mulch of Ghent, around the trees and shrubs in the Public Square, under the direction of professional landscaper David Dew Bruner. Bring your own bucket and gardening gloves and join the mulching effort. 

• If your idea of enjoying spring runs more toward indulging in the treats unique to the season, or if you want to reward yourself for your hard work at Oakdale or the Public Square, there is the Rhubarb Fest at Stuyvesant Depot. From 1:00 to 3:00 p.m., enjoy live music, rhubarb pie, and more.
