10 reasons to plant trees1 with the
New Hampshire State Forest Nursery

  1. Trees clean water. Trees make water clean and safe for drinking, boating, fish and wildlife.

  2. Trees fight climate change. Planting 30 trees each year offsets greenhouse gases from your car and home.

  3. You'll breathe easier. Your trees will clean the air and return pure oxygen. More trees means breathing relief for all of us.

  4. Trees are cool. Your trees cool the air, land, and water with leafy shade and moisture.

  5. Trees count. Every tree you plant is one closer to American Forests' goal of 20 million trees for the new millennium. Together we can plant the future!

  6. Trees celebrate life. Planting trees shares the joy of birth or a birthday, remembers a loved one, or says thank you to a friend.

  7. Animals need trees. Planting can restore forests, sheltering and nourishing wildlife, from bears to bald eagles, salmon to salamanders.

  8. Trees save money. Trees can reduce the cost of controlling stormwater, and reduce home energy use.

  9. Trees make good neighbors. Trees improve our quality of life.

  10. It's easy. Planting trees is just a phone call - or mouse click - away.
