TREE PRESERVATION PROJECT
Farmington Lutheran’s Properties Team has been working with Premium Tree Protection to inventory the trees on FLC’s property and the health of each tree. Treatment options for the sick trees are available. It is recommended that approximately 18 trees be treated, and 8 trees be cut down/removed. The cost per tree for a treatment is approximately $270.00. If you are interested in donating to support this project you can do so by clicking HERE. Stop by the display in the gathering space for more information.
