Terry Wheeler and Michael Brenner of McLeansboro are two foresters/forestry contractors who are huge promoters of forestry in Southern Illinois. They organized a second Arbor Day celebration in McLeansboro because of the great success we had last year. All the third graders from the county were brought to the planting site, divided up into seven groups, and then each group planted a tree. It was a great learning experience for them. I was busy the whole time and didn't get any photos, but given the way things are going, I prefer not to be taking photos of other peoples' kids. Anyhow, here is our little Earth Day celebration video. You can do many wonderful things with a tree after you cut it down, so for Heaven's sake, plant one when you can!
