Background
My mother loved the great outdoors. She taught me how to mountain climb (with ropes), hike, scramble, downhill ski, cross-county ski, garden, plant trees, and relocate flowers.

About Arbor Day Foundation
Each year, the Arbor Day Foundation plants millions of trees across the globe to help clean our drinking water, filter the air, slow climate change, and protect critical wildlife habitats. The need for trees in our forests is greater than ever before. Wildfires, disease, and deforestation have destroyed millions of acres of trees, and your donation will help bring these forests back to life.Frequently asked questions
