You would think that being a tree nursery - I would know when National Tree Day was! I could have blogged about it and made some special promotions to celebrate the event. But no - I was unaware that there was such a day until it was too late. Turns out that National Tree day is celebrated on September 26th (next year it is July 26th - take note - Ha! - also watch for promotions!)...and the only way I found about it was when a teacher phoned from a local High School who was wondering if we had any trees available for her class to plant. Do we have trees? We have thousands of them - how many thousands do you need? They didn't need thousands of them but 8 would do...well this turned out to be a big event. A class trip was planned to our facility and we ended up helping the class dig the holes and even donating a Pyramidal Oak. The local TV station was there as well as local newspapers. On further investigation I found that National Tree day is everywhere (how could I miss it!) it is on facebook and twitter - heck - they even have their own website and everything! I have to spend more time on my social media stuff and get out from under the proverbial rock I have been under! It has been quite busy here this past week as the weather has started to change and people want to get their fall gardening done. I hope to get out this afternoon and take some pictures of the leaves starting to change colour and it looks like it will be a bright sunny afternoon.
