This is a great opportunity to get out and learn what type of tree will grow best in our area.  Along with the seminar on what types of trees, there will be a seminar on how to properly care for your trees.  Those who attend the seminars will recieve a $20 tree voucher, the activities and seminars are free.  All children attending will recieve a free tree as well as a demonstration of how to plant and care for their trees.   

If you're in the area, this is a great opportunity to learn how to improve the environment by planting a tree, but even more, by planting the types of trees that work best in our environment.  Have a great weekend!
