GREENFIELD — More than 100 trees will be planted at two Greenfield parks this fall, thanks to a federal grant.

Regreening Greenfield, a local nonprofit organization, was awarded an $8,000 grant from the Community and Urban Forestry program of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources. The grant is funded by the federal Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service as a way to improve tree canopies in cities.

Fifty trees will be planted at Riley Park, said David Shaw, Regreening Greenfield board member, and 56 trees will be planted at Beckenholdt Park.
