Arbor Day Celebration

Arbor Day is a nationally-celebrated observance that encourages tree planting and care. Founded by J. Sterling Morton in 1872, it’s celebrated in all fifty states, Puerto Rico and some U.S. territories. 

Hosted by the La Palma Community Activities & Beautification Committee and Community Services Department, the La Palma Arbor Day Celebration includes a display of entries from the coloring and art contests, Arbor Day crafts, Arbor Day Tree Sponsorship program, art contest awards presentation, and of course, planting of a new tree.  

Mark your calendars! The 2022 Arbor Day Celebration is scheduled for April 20, 2022, from 4-6 pm in Central Park! This event is subject to change.
