“I’m incredibly sad. It’s hard to fathom,” said Karen Zumach, the director of community forestry for Tree Trust, which planted the trees with the help of high school students in October.
The trees were a variety of species and were meant to replace a large swath of ash trees that were professionally removed earlier this year, Zumach said. The saplings stood about five to seven feet tall and weighed up to 30 pounds.
