City of Milton to Celebrate Arbor Day with Tree Planting at Milton High School MILTON, Fla
The City of Milton is proud to continue its longstanding commitment to urban forestry by celebrating Arbor Day with a special tree planting ceremony at Milton High School on April 25, 2025, at 12:30 p.m.
City officials, students, and community members will come together to plant a new tree on campus, reinforcing the City’s dedication to environmental sustainability and the benefits of a thriving urban canopy.
Trees do more than beautify our city—they reduce urban heat, improve air and water quality, increase property values, and enhance overall quality of life for current and future generations,” said Edward Spears, City Manager. “We are excited to celebrate Arbor Day with the students at Milton High School and continue our efforts to keep Milton green.”
This year’s Arbor Day celebration comes as Milton is once again recognized as a Tree City USA by the Arbor Day Foundation—a designation the city has proudly maintained for 31 consecutive years. The Tree City USA program honors communities that demonstrate a strong commitment to urban forestry by meeting four core standards:
• Maintaining a tree board or department
• Having a community tree ordinance
• Spending at least $2 per capita on urban forestry
• Celebrating Arbor Day with a community event
Recently, the city planted more than 80 native trees in city parks thanks to a $23,000 FDACS Urban Forestry Tree Grant. This initiative aims to restore Milton’s Urban Tree Canopy, which plays a vital role in stormwater management, reducing erosion, and protecting the Blackwater River.
For more information about the Arbor Day event, please contact the Public Information Officer at (850) 983-5400, ext.1046, or email [email protected].

Join us in celebrating the 2025 State Arbor Day celebration on May 20, 2025, at North Dakota Game and Fish's headquarters in Bismarck. We are recognizing 30 years since the "Year of the Family" family forest planting, a Centennial Trees project that honored babies born in the year 1994. As many of those honored are having families of their own now, let's continue to celebrate the tradition of tree planting. The North Dakota Forest Service welcomes anyone to join the fun. We will be handing out 100 FREE tree seedlings to families (while supplies last, courtesy of Towner State Nursery) and providing educational activities for children utilizing the environmental education program Project Learning Tree.

Attendees can help plant the ceremonial tree, explore ND Game and Fish's hiking trails, visit the original Family Forest planting, fish in the OWLS pond, walk the native tree and shrub interpretive trail, and participate in hands-on activities about trees. This event is free and open to the public.

The Arbor Day Celebration is a community event originally developed as a way for the City of Statesville to be designated as a Tree City USA, by the National Arbor Day Foundation. The Tree City USA is a program designed to help communities maintain and grow their tree cover. As part of the City of Statesville Arbor Day Celebration event, we giveaway free tree saplings in hopes that they will be planted around the community to maintain the beautification of our great City. Along with free tree saplings, event participants also receive literature and information on how to properly care and maintain their trees as they grow. In 2022, The City of Statesville commemorated 30 years as being recognized as a Tree City USA.

The Arbor Day Celebration event was also created and designed to celebrate the beautiful City of Statesville, bring the community together, educate children and the community about the importance of protecting our environment, and to highlight one of our most popular parks and greenways.

We are excited to invite you to the Department of Public Works "Arbor Day" Ceremony, with the planting of a Red Maple Tree. City of South Lyon Mayor Steve Kennedy will read the proclamation to Arbor Day, then plant the Red Maple Tree. On hand will be South Lyon Area Girl Scouts, each with their shovels and watering cans, to help Mayor Kennedy.

The many benefits that trees bring to our community are that they play a vital role in stormwater uptake and filtration. Trees provide fresh air, shade, and even increase property values. Trees help reduce soil erosion and make our environment more sustainable and beautiful.
