Plant a tree on Arbor Day, April 25!

[fgoodwin]

Arbor Day in many states is celebrated on the last Friday of April each year; this year, that is Friday, Apr 25.

 

I know Earth Day gets much more press around this time of year than does Arbor Day -- and Earth Day obviously celebrates a good cause, but we should not forget Arbor Day in the glare of all the Earth Day media and activities.
