| 2012 Annual Tree & Seedling Sale |
| Planting a Generation of Smiles By Troy Bishopp It’s been over two decades since John Denver sang these famous words for the National Arbor Day Foundation: “ Plant a tree for your tomorrow. It's your tree that clears the air. Plant a tree, trees for America. Plant a tree today for all the world to share. Taste the breeze, it's life inside you. Make a promise to the Earth. Plant a tree, now is the time to. Recognize a tree for all that it is worth.” Pictured right, Larry Gushea of Oneida NY with Grandsons Hunter (left) and Cody (right) Pictured below, Doug Trush of Nelson, NY and his dog "Captain" getting ready to plant more trees on their 400 acre farm. |
| The recently sold-out Madison County Soil and Water Conservation District’s 26th annual tree sale indicates local residents are also singing the praises of planting a generation of smiles. Many parents, grandparents, great-grandparents and children shared memories of planting and nurturing their trees with loved ones as a special, seasonal bonding moment. These budding arborists add value and beauty to their property, break the cold winds to lower heating costs, remove carbon dioxide from the air and mitigate noise pollution in the neighborhood. They stabilize riparian areas and provide food for wildlife while sustaining a community with local lumber, fruit and maple syrup. Your local staff at the District appreciates inspiring a community and working in partnership to create a sustainable environment for Madison County and beyond. Thank you for the memories. |
