Alabama: Foundation Plans to Plant 150,000 Trees in Bankhead
Bankhead National Forest is in the first group of forests to benefit from a plan to plant 50 million trees in the nation’s public lands. The National Arbor Day Foundation is planting 150,000 trees in Bankhead this winter to help the U.S. Forest Service, which has spent so much money fighting fires and forest pests that it has not had money to budget for forest repair.

I love to see stories of restorations that involve trees. I firmly believe that trees are the life-blood of the environment and have been taken for granted for years. I started EarthMark to help make restorations more successful. We produce RPM trees that grow faster, produce fruit/nuts sooner and are more flood and drought resistant than traditional trees. See my blog, http:/mikesark.blogspot.com for more information about RPM.
