Workers within the gig economy will find helpful tips and essential forms to accurately manage their taxes.

About the 2020 Census

The goal of the 2020 Census is to count everyone who lives in the United States. It is conducted every 10 years and is required by the U.S. Constitution. Census responses determine congressional representation in the states and inform how billions of dollars in federal funds are distributed to states and local communities every year for critical public services and infrastructure, including health clinics, schools, roads and emergency services.
For media inquiries or interviews: Please contact the Public Information Office at pio@census.gov or call 301-763-3030 to request an interview.

Get Rooted in Our Community with Arbor Day
Celebrate Arbor Day by Planting Trees at Martha Wellman Park

WHO:              Leon County and the City of Tallahassee

WHAT:            Arbor Day Tree Planting

WHEN:           Saturday, Jan. 25, at 9 a.m.

WHERE:         Martha Wellman Park, 5317 W. Tennessee Street

Leon County Government and the City of Tallahassee invite citizens to celebrate Arbor Day by planting trees at Martha Wellman Park, 5317 W. Tennessee Street, on Saturday, Jan. 25, at 9 a.m. This event is a fun opportunity for volunteers to reconnect with the earth while also strengthening the park’s habitat for the hundreds of native and migratory species that call Tallahassee-Leon County home, even if only for a season.

This year, volunteers will help plant a diverse mix of native and pollinator species, including Profusion and Robinson Crabapple trees, pond cypress, eastern red cedar, serviceberry and American beech.

Leon County and the City of Tallahassee have a long history of celebrating Arbor Day. Last year, hundreds of trees and shrubs were planted by volunteers of all ages at the City’s Lake Elberta Park.

Volunteers are asked to dress for the weather and bring gloves, shovels, drinking water and friends. The event will take place rain or shine. No registration is necessary.

For more information about the Arbor Day Tree Planting event, contact Mathieu Cavell, Leon County Community and Media Relations, at (850) 606-5300, or the City of Tallahassee Parks, Recreation and Neighborhood Affairs Department at (850) 891-3866.
