Branford FFA celebrates Florida Arbor Day with tree planting

Danny Federico reporter3.riverbendnews@gmail.com In celebration of Florida Arbor Day, on Friday, Jan. 19, Branford's Future Farmers of America (FFA) chapter planted trees donated by Shade Tree Nursery on Branford High School's campus. The trees, placed outside of Building 5, contribute not only to the school's aesthetics but also promote environmental sustainability. This initiative emphasizes the FFA program's commitment to fostering a greener future and educating students on the importance of environmental conservation. The newly planted trees stand as a lasting symbol of the students' efforts toward building a healthier, more sustainable environment.
