Trees Available from Green County Land & Water Conservation Dept.

Submitted by admin on Tue, 12/15/2015 - 7:53am

Remember about a month ago, the warmer weather and the colorful fall foliage? Weren’t we blessed and thankful for the wonderful colors? How about during the hot summer? We were all thankful to have some shade from trees. The birds, squirrels, rabbits, and other critters were thankful to have a home and food from the trees. Do you want to keep the colors and shade coming or wish to keep the birds singing and the animals cavorting? The trees and forests always need to be replenished. One way of replenishing them is to replant new, younger trees.
