Herkimer, NY– Herkimer County Community College students enrolled in Professor Ronald Carvin’s biology class participated in an Earth Day project earlier this week. They planted more than 100 trees in the balsam fir plantation located in the HCCC Nature Trail.

President Ann Marie Murray also joined the group to help with the planting. This is the fourth year that Professor Carvin and his students have planted trees to commemorate Earth Day.

Other Earth Day activities by HCCC students taking place this week include flower planting at the Veterans Memorial Park located at the entrance to Wehrum Stadium, a trash pick-up along Main Street in the Village of Herkimer, and park clean-ups at Brookwood Park and the Herkimer Mini-Park located on the corner of William and Smith Streets.
