The Arbor Day Foundation has developed a successful scientific approach to preparing and nursing the tree seedlings in its greenhouses. Trees planted by NADF and the U.S. Forest Service have an average 80 percent survival rate when they are planted in National Forests.
Why Should You Donate?
Planting trees in the backyard or at a local park helps beautify the neighborhood and benefit the community. But by working together, everyone’s combined resources can have a significant impact on our world’s environment.
The Arbor Day Foundation and the U.S. Forest Service use a scientific approach to reforestation. In fact, at the Arbor Day greenhouse, experts there can accomplish in six months what it takes Mother Nature five years to grow. By using native seeds and soils from the areas of replanting, they can ensure a high survival rate in the wild.
It starts with matching strong seeds to suitable soil and providing a good environment for growing.
The Arbor Day Foundation takes care to ensure every seedling is grown and prepared to maximize its survival in the forests.
The U.S. Forest Service has the expertise and dedication to ensure that these trees will be planted properly in the areas where they are needed most.
