On Track to a Greener Michigan with Consumers Energy
and Michigan International Speedway
Consumers Energy and Michigan International Speedway have teamed up with the Michigan Association of Conservation Districts to plant 50,000 white pine seedling across Michigan.
As sponsors of the initiative, Consumers Energy and Michigan International Speedway are providing the seedlings through local conservation districts. Alcona Conservation District is looking for groups to participate in planting events to be held on publicly accessible lands such as parks, school grounds or forest property, or township and county properties where the trees have the greatest chance for survival.
If your group is interested in participating in this effort, please contact Alcona Conservation District at (989) 724-5272 before April 6, 2015.
