The Arbor Day Foundation will be honoring 17 individuals, organizations and corporations for their tree planting, nature education and conservation efforts.
The winners will receive their awards at Arbor Day’s annual banquet May 1 at the Lied Lodge & Conference Center at the Arbor Day Farm outside Lincoln, Nebraska.
The foundation pays tribute to the friends of trees every year, since 1972, to highlight the need to conserve and restore the nation’s urban and wild forests.
