Arbor Day celebration

Saturday, April 26, 2-4 p.m.

An Arbor Day celebration welcomes guests to Mapleton Preserve, the former home of Princeton Nurseries, on Saturday, April 26th, from 2 – 4 p.m. William Flemer IV (a member of the Flemer family that founded the legendary Princeton Nurseries) will present a demonstration of the grafting techniques used by the Nursery. This will be followed by the planting of a specimen tree in the Flemer Arboretum. As in past years, those who worked at the Princeton Nurseries Kingston site have been invited back to share stories and memories with the public. All guests will receive a seedling tree to bring home and plant. This event, sponsored by Friends of Princeton Nursery Lands, will be held at the Headquarters of the D&R Canal State Park, located at 145 Mapleton Road in Kingston, 08540. For more information and directions, call 609-514-2416 (weekdays) or 609-683-0483 (evenings and weekends). Registration is NOT required, all are welcome and admission is FREE! Master Gardeners will receive 1 CE unit for attending this event. MORE
