Love trees, love the planet

Today is World Environment Day. This years theme is Your Planet Needs You-UNite to Combat Climate Change. 

It's also Arbor Day. A day for the planting and care of trees. Originating in Nebraska in 1872 it is today celebrated by countries all over the world. Here in NZ celebrations focus on planting native trees to restore habitats damaged by humans, pests and weeds.

Right now I'm heading out into the cold to plant our little psuedopanax. Have you got a tree that needs some love?
