Happy Arbor Day! Will you be planting something this weekend to celebrate? Adding trees and shrubs to your landscape can help protect soil and water resources, sequester carbon, increase wildlife habitat, and provide edible fruits and nuts. In addition to the wildlife and environmental benefits, properly selected and placed trees and shrubs provide privacy, energy savings, protection from wind or snow, and increased property value.
