Isaiah Wilkins, 6, carries a Red maple Saturday after he and his family picked out trees to plant during the Re-LEAF Fayetteville Project on the Fayetteville Square. The city’s Tree and Landscape Advisory Committee and Parks and Recreation and Urban Forestry divisions made 900 trees available to Fayetteville residents in an effort to replenish the town’s urban forest canopy in the wake of the destruction of the January ice storm.
