GreenFriends Tree Planting

On Saturday, May 15th several organizations planted eight trees at the Huston Lake Park in Denver. The six people in the photo are with the local GreenFriends. Along with planting trees they said a prayer to the Divine Mother: “Jai Ma!” According to Amma.org:

“Founded in 2001, GreenFriends is the international environmental initiative of Embracing the World. It's a volunteer-based movement that promotes environmental awareness and participation at the individual and community levels. GreenFriends seeks to inspire people to serve and protect nature, so that all life-forms may live in harmony upon the Earth.
