Happy Arbor Day!! If you have any tree questions, we are happy to help!

What does he plant who plants a tree?
He plants cool shade and tender rain,
And seed and bud of days to be,
And years that fade and flush again;
He plants the glory of the plain;
He plants the forest’s heritage;
The harvest of a coming age;
The joy that unborn eyes shall see—
These things he plants who plants a tree.

–Excerpt from The Heart of the Tree by Henry Cuyler Bunner (1855-1896)

Happy Arbor Day!! celebrates two Arbor Days a year - once in November for Texas Arbor Day, and once in April for National Arbor Day. We love trees and we know you do, too.

One of the popular traditions for Arbor Day is to plant a tree for a loved one. If you do, be sure to check out our Midland TreeKeepers for all of the fabulous tree tips!
