The last Friday in April is Arbor Day, so go dig a hole, plant a tree and sip some iced tea.  Many cities and states across the U.S. celebrate Arbor Day on different days depending on when it’s best to plant trees in that area.  North Carolina’s was way back in March! Hopefully you didn’t miss your city’s, but if you did, today is the day! Plant a tree and get your kids, friends or community involved in the action.
