Welcome to the home of Georgia's Arbor Day!

 

Georgia's Arbor Day 2010 was celebrated on Friday, February 19th

Georgia's Arbor Day 2011 will be celebrated on Friday, February 18th

Visit “The Grove” to find out how you can plant trees to commemorate special life moments and leave a lasting legacy for future generations. 

The best time to plant trees in Georgia is between the months of November and mid-March. Planting during this time allows trees a chance to become established before the hot, dry period of summer. This is why Arbor Day is celebrated every year in Georgia on the third Friday of February.


Check out the links above for information on Arbor Day and ways that you and your family or business can take part in leaving a lasting legacy for future generations by planting a tree.
