º£½Ç´óÉñ

º£½Ç´óÉñ is being honored for the second year in a row for its dedication to urban forestry. The National Arbor Day Foundation has designated º£½Ç´óÉñ Northeast Campus as a 2013 Tree Campus USA community.

In order to be designated as a Tree Campus USA, campuses must meet five campus standards:

1. Campus Tree Advisory Committee
2. Campus Tree Care Plan
3. Campus Tree Program with Dedicated Annual Expenditures
4. Arbor Day Observance
5. Service Learning Project

As part of the honor, º£½Ç´óÉñ employees planted an Arbor Day tree on the lawn of the Governor’s Mansion in March.

In the past year, º£½Ç´óÉñ has planted over 150 trees on the º£½Ç´óÉñ Northeast Campus thanks to donations from Up With Trees. One of those trees was planted at the recent EcoFest event (seen below).
