2009 Idaho Arbor Day
The
City of Grangeville
celebrated Arbor Day on April 24th, 2009. Students from the
6th grade classes were able to meet up with Idaho Soil & Water
Conservation District staff. The kids planted 3 trees at the Lion’s
Park in Grangeville. The trees planted
this year were 1-Linden, 1-Emerald Lustre Maple and 1-Sugar Maple, purchased
locally from Green Acres Nursery. After planting the trees, the kids
each received a 2009 Arbor Day T-Shirt.
Each
year the City of Grangeville
asks for the help of the Soil & Water Conservation District in applying
for a grant. The grant is sponsored by Idaho Nursery and Landscape
Assoc.(INLA), in cooperation with IDL, Avista, Rocky
Mountain Power, and Idaho Power.
Here are the 2009 6th grade
students with one of the trees they helped to plant.
