Contributed
SAULT STE. MARIE The campus of Lake Superior State University has over 300 new trees thanks to a recent donation by the Superior Watershed Partnership and Land Conservancy.
A crew of four from Superior Watershed Partnership’s Great Lakes Climate Corps spent a week planting 339 strategically placed saplings across campus: 200 white spruce, 85 maple, 32 chokecherry, 12 white oak and 10 eastern white pine spanning the central heating plant, the Fletcher Center, the row houses, and the Center for Applied Science & Engineering Technology.
“In the planning stages of this project, we coordinated with the university to prioritize native species that provide both community and ecological benefits,” said Great Lakes Climate Corps Program Manager Tyler Penrod. “For example, the oaks and pines at the Fletcher Center will one day offer excellent hammocking as well as filter and absorb runoff before it enters the Great Lakes.
