we're going to an old, abandoned baseball field.
Bianca Garcia at WBUR in Boston brought us this story.
Earlier this month, she met up with about 50 volunteers at this old baseball field in Attleboro.
It's a small city in Massachusetts.
So she saw these volunteers wearing gardening gloves and wellies.
They formed sort of a production line to plant trees and shrubs.
Some volunteers were dunking saplings in troughs full of nutrient-rich water.
Others stepped on shovels and they dug holes for the saplings.
People zoomed by with wheelbarrows full of mulch.
Some walked into a nearby forest and they dug up some mushrooms to replant near the saplings so that this underground network of mycelium could improve soil health.
And there was one student, her name's Sydney Battle.
She held a sapling in her hand.
She's a sophomore at Attleboro High School.
She was trying to figure out where to plant it.
I don't want to put an American chestnut right next to another American chestnut.
I want to put like a variety so it's like diverse.
And Aisha, this planting style that these volunteers are following.
It's something called the Miyawaki method of planting.
A Miyawaki method of planting.
What is that?
