SALUTING BRANCHES - Arborists United for Veteran Remembrance

[Beth Corrigan]

The Mission: We honor American service men and women by organizing volunteer tree and landscape care for the property dedicated to our veterans.

REGISTER HERE  (early registration includes a t-shirt)

This year's day of service is September 20th, 2023. Follow the link above to find a location near you or volunteer as a site leader and start a new location. While many tree care crews volunteer together, there are many opportunities for non-climbers and individuals to participate. PlanIT Geo™ will once again be offering a TreePlotter™ software application to all sites for the collection of tree inventory data. 

Please share your experiences, why you volunteer, and a bit about your site. This event is near and dear to me and I have only missed one year when the event was cancelled due to Covid. First in IL at Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery and now at Fort Logan National Cemetery in Denver, SB is my favorite volunteer event. Spending time to help make the sites safer and more beautiful for veterans and their families gives me a sense of pride and peace that lasts all year. I hope you will check out the Saluting Banches website, gather your friends and co-workers, and join us on Wednesday, Sept 20th!

"The largest one-day volunteer event in the tree industry! On September 28, 2022, Saluting Branches had 3,000 volunteers donate their talents and services to the caring of trees at 83 vereran properties. This translates to over $3 million in donated services!"
