In preparation for the City’s celebration of Earth Day and Arbor Day tomorrow, 300 one-gallon oak trees are being donated by the Newhall Land and Farming Company for distribution at the event.

The event, which will be held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Central Park, will feature Earth-friendly activities, including an e-waste collection; music, food and entertainment on two stages for all age groups.
