Arbor Day

It takes a lot of Yeses to plant 500 million trees. That’s why when you commit to celebrating Arbor Day, you’re doing more than helping put trees in the ground. You’re saying Yes to a healthier world. So grab your gardening gloves and join an event in your area, plant a tree in your yard, or hit the donate button—however you say it, your Yes makes a difference.

Sign up to plant trees during special Purdue Day of Service:

Purdue University and the Purdue for Life Foundation are seeking volunteers for a special spring Purdue Day of Service, to be held April 26 at Horticulture Park. This event, which will celebrate both Arbor Day and National Volunteer Month, will once again feature tree planting and beautification work.

Those interested in volunteering can register here.

To learn more about this event, please visit The Arbor Day Foundation.
