Wow! We’re blown away with the new tree planters we met in Seneca! Thank you @StateFarm and @arborday for helping us give away another 1,050 trees to residents whose old trees were blown away by the big storms in 2020. @SF_KimConyers

This Australian city gave their trees email addresses. It started as a way to report problems with city trees, but turned into love letters to people's favorite trees! What would you write to your favorite tree in the upstate?smithsonianmag.com/smart-new…

Still need date-night plans for #EarthDay? Here’s an idea: Treat your special someone to beers, brats, #baseball & fireworks tonight @GreenvilleDrive AND bring home an #energy saving #tree! Doesn’t get more romantic & conservation-minded than that!

We had a great time planting these oak trees with @BereaElementary! If your school needs trees, contact us to find out more about our educational tree planting program 🌳🌳🌳

.@TreesUpstateSC and community volunteers led a tree planting day at @BereaElementary School this week. Students got a chance to help plant an oak tree. They also learned how trees benefit both the local ecosystem and the Greenville community as they grow for the next 100 years!

What a beautiful day to plant a tree! It was a pleasure to join @TreesUpstateSC for their tree planting ceremony on the @theprismahealth Swamp Rabbit Trail which will help in the beautification and preservation of the Upstate and its natural environments.
