Future Forestry plants 100 trees at Veterans and Kamal Parkway

In hopes of “Planting it forward,” Future Forestry plants 100 trees along Veterans and Kamal Parkway.

Dozens of people gathered with their shovels and gloves ready to plant trees.

Russ Ringland is behind this project he is the creator of the non-profit Future Forestry Corporation.

“Cape Coral was developed long ago with developers took out all the trees and they took the dirt from the canals to elevate the land and in their process, they lost the urban forest so we’re putting them back,” Ringland said.
