Coastal Bryan Tree Foundation recognized Harvey Lashley, (seen left in the above photo) as its Tree Hero of 2022. 

Lashley, director of Richmond Hill City Parks and Trees, has championed trees for nearly three decades. 

His award was presented by Rena Patton at the CBTF Oyster Roast at JF Gregory Park, Saturday, March 5. 

A large live oak will be planted in the park to honor Lashley and his commitment to tree canopy in Richmond Hill.
