The Big Plant is a community event hosted by the @Environmental Coalition at Virginia Tech, @Stroubles Creek Coalition, Virginia Tech, TerraHabitats and New River Conservancy where thousands of trees are planted on Virginia Tech’s campus and surrounding Blacksburg area to initiate ecological restoration.
The event is open to the public, which brings in hundreds of students and community members of all backgrounds and ages to volunteer.
The Big Plant strives to enable positive environmental change for individuals who may think they have no power over their macro-environment. The original cause for the Big Plant was to combat climate change, and while that is still a primary focus, trees can serve as an ecological answer for more than one environmental issue.
This event is primarily funded by New River Conservancy and is a joint partnership between NRC, Virginia Tech, and the Environmental Coalition at VT.
