Earlier today, a gathering of locals were seen planting down roots in the Old Village. The postponed Dec. 12 South Carolina Arbor Day tree planting brought out a range of community members who chipped in on installing 20-plus live oaks in the Pitt Street Bridge area. Each of the young trees feature a green tag that's easily identified in daylight. The initiative has long been in the works, with the Mount Pleasant Planning Department joining forces with the GREEN Commission on the environmental venture. The collaborative effort included the removal of invasive/non-native plant species.
