The Norfolk Tree Commission, along with the Norfolk Master Gardeners and Norfolk Parks & Recreation, will once again be hosting Norfolk’s Arbor Day Festival at Lafayette Park. Come out to hug a tree, learn about proper planting, get answers from professionals, and adopt* and shop for trees, plants, and more. With support from several businesses and organizations from the city, you are sure to walk away with new knowledge, new plants, or a new perspective on what trees do for us and what we can do for the trees! *free giveaway
