Arbor Day Events

Arbor Day celebration in Ridgefield's beautiful Ballard Park.

The City of Corinth will observe Arbor Day by planting a tree at the Corinth Nature Preserve near our butterfly garden.

Similar to last year’s event, the Town of Argyle will be hosting a drive-through style event, to be held at Argyle Town Hall – 308 Denton Street, Argyle, TX 76226, on Saturday, November 1, 2025 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The Argyle Mayor will have a table for residents to chat and grab coffee and donuts as they drive through and pick up their tree. Keep Argyle Beautiful and local certified arborists, will also be in attendance to share program information and assist with planting best practices.

We get a tree and plant it every year with schools in our community. Kids love to come out while the mayor reads the proclamation, they help throw dirt on the tree. We have gotten a Lorax costume in the past.

Celebration of Texas Arbor Day.

We have a poster contest based on the annual theme. We invite a forester to come talk about the importance of trees and how to plant them. The schools choose a poem and song about trees to recite. We give away small gifts to ever student in attendance and award the poster contest winners with prizes.

Annual Arbor Day Celebration will include a free tree giveaway and tree care information, leaf tracing craft, souvenirs, and refreshments.
