Children's Arbor Day

 

 

Children's Arbor Day

Each spring, Denton County Master Gardeners support the Children's Arbor Day project sponsored by Keep Denton Beautiful. Master Gardeners and volunteers from other community organizations present an Arbor Day program and distribute Redbud seedlings to all third grade students in Denton.

Using a tree seedling for demonstration, Master Gardeners discuss how to identify redbud trees and the correct way to plant and care for the new tree seedling as it grows. Each student is given a tree seedling with planting instructions to take home and plant in his or her own yard. This project is a wonderful opportunity to introduce the Denton third grade students and their teachers to the importance and beauty of trees in our community.
