TREE NEWS
While Earth Month may be over, the South Sound’s year of action for the planet is just beginning. To celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day, the Earth Day South Sound partnership has committed to a goal of achieving a healthy tree for every child in the South Sound. To reach this goal, we need the help of all our community members.
The house was built in the 1940s, but these trees must have been older than that. They were so massive that the area in between and around them served as a natural playground for years to come. I learned all about bugs and birds and squirrels from those trees. My sister and I climbed all over them, hid in their nooks and crannies, drew pictures with chalk in our driveway under their shade.
