Fall Tree Planting Time Begins


Fall is in full swing, and did you know it is a great time for tree planting? Apex Landscaping began planting trees in Village parkways on Friday, October 14th, for Lombard's Fall Tree Planting program. The Village will plant 298 trees from three nurseries over the next two weeks.

After installation, the trees will be inspected and mulched by Lombard Forestry personnel with after care instruction door hangers left for the adjacent residents. Residents at locations where trees are scheduled to be planted were notified by mail in early September.
