Arbor Day Celebration | April 26, 2024 | 9 am
LOCATION CHANGE TO:
Fairmont Public Works Facility | 801 E Margaret Street
Please park on west side of facility

Due to the rainy weather, the Arbor Day Celebration will be held at the Public Works Facility with Mrs. Striemer’s SJV 4th grade students performing a short program. The Park Department will plant a European Hornbeam tree at a later date.

Trees are among the most beautiful and useful products of nature. They have been cherished since ancient times. The oxygen we breathe is released to us by trees and other green plants. Trees provide food, shelter, medicines and keep our soil from eroding. Let’s hear it for trees!

Tree Species Information: The European Hornbeam has densely textured foliage and handsome slate-gray smooth to fluted bark. The lush dark green leaves turn an attractive yellow in the fall. At full maturity, this beauty will have grown to a height of 40-60′ with a spread of 30-40′. The European Hornbeam is of interest and beauty in all seasons and will be a perfect addition to our green spaces in the City of Fairmont.

What location will this tree be planted? I would like to be able to see it. I'm not sure that I have ever seen a European Hornbeam!
