Susan and John Landau joined the Morristown Shade Tree Commission eight years ago with the goal of restoring Foote’s Pond Wood. They led volunteers in removing invasive plants, planting a meadow, and eventually organizing a team of 300 community helpers, including local civic groups and students. Their efforts resulted in hundreds of thriving native plants and the creation of an outdoor teaching circle for elementary students, where children adopt and plant trees while learning about the importance of native forests. John and Susan brought education and awareness to a new level through their passion and dedication.
