What is Arbor Day?

Did you know today is Arbor Day?  It's the day we celebrate and plant trees, and it dates back to 1872!  Here are some ways you can celebrate, straight from the Arbor Day Foundation:

  • Plant a tree (of course!)
  • Read a book about trees.  Learn how to identify the trees in your yard or neighborhood.
  • Enjoy the outdoors.  Take a hike, visit a park, or just explore your own yard.
  • Attend a class on tree and plant care.
As always, you can find books on trees, tree care, and even Arbor Day at the Mansfield Public Library!
