Non-profit Spotlight: Northeast Tree Tenders

After a long drive on the highway, I turned onto one of Philly's beatiful tree lined streets and I felt noticably better.  I had the thought that there should be more organizations planting trees on Philadelphia streets.  It turns out there are groups doing just that and Northeast Tree Tenders is one of the successful organizations.  Residents of the Northeast can request a tree for their property and for free or a suggested $15 donation, one will be planted.  The group has planted close to three hundred trees since its inception.  The Fall planting day is November 20th, so get those applications in.
