Hold a public tree planting ceremony on your congregational grounds or public space to make the moral call for climate action loud and clear by inviting local press to attend and cover your event. It’s a great photo op for local press!
Order trees for your planting ceremony from the Arbor Day Foundation – become a member for $10 and get 10 free trees suitable for your area and a generous discount on trees ordered, plus shipping free for orders over $60. It’s an easy way to get the trees delivered to your congregation and support a great organization.
Purchase the Faith Climate Action Week kit here that includes the “For Love of Trees” tree planting ceremony, fact sheet, and press kit.
