Check out the Arbor Day Foundation’s website where you can have trees planted in the name of loved ones. It’s a gift that gives for a lifetime.
Remember how bad you always felt at the end of ‘The Giving Tree’, well imagine feeling the complete opposite. That’s what it feels like to plant a tree.

If you need more convincing:
‘As the trees grow and prosper, so does the meaning of your gift.
Over the course of 50 years, a single tree can generate $31,250 of oxygen, provide $62,000 worth of air pollution control, recycle $37,500 worth of water, and control $31,500 worth of soil erosion.
Your trees will be silent sentinels, honorable monuments, and for decades to come, active participants in nature’s plan.’
