FREE ADMISSION

Founded in 1872 by J. Sterling Morton in Nebraska City, Nebraska, National Arbor Day is observed annually on the last Friday in April. On the very first Arbor Day, April 10, 1872, an estimated one million trees were planted! Each year, thousands around the country celebrate together by planting trees in their communities.
Join the Borough of Waynesboro Council, the Shade Tree Commission, and Renfrew Committee, Inc. at Renfrew Museum & Park on Friday, April 25, 2025 at 4:00PM as we celebrate the 153rd anniversary of Arbor Day! Gather with us for a planting and dedication of a Autumn Blaze Red Maple sapling in honor of Renfrew’s 50th Anniversary celebration! Vendors including the Shade Tree Commission, Lions Club, Bartlett Tree Experts, Tru-Precision Lawn Care, and the Nicodemus Center for Ceramic Studies will be present in the side yard of the Museum House.

Keep the Arbor Day celebration going by planting a tree at home! Free Pecan River Birch seedlings from our friends at Bartlett Tree Experts and Tru-Precision Lawn Care will be available to all attendees at the Visitors Center throughout the week (while supplies last).
