Morton was a ardent greens warden. He decided that a could be dedicated to the honoring and planting of trees.
One of the Nixon Administrations achievements was the proclamation of the last Friday in April as National Arbor Day..
This Arbor Day -- April 25 -- decide to help the environment by planting some trees. This will benefit your community. And add more oxygen to the atmosphere. More on this.
