Friends of the Maud Gordon Holmes Arboretum at Buffalo State

Here's the direct link to "The Street Life of Trees," a collaboration of science and art, written by Dr. Robert Warren and illustrated by Jaclyn Chuchanis. You get a FREE copy when you join or renew your membership to the MGH Arboretum! And maybe order a couple of extra for those you love. :-) All proceeds benefit the MGH Arboretum. https://thestreetlifeoftrees.com/

This week, the theme for A Word A Day was tree-related words! In addition to today's word (fig), others were corroborate, palmary, willowy, and birch. https://wordsmith.org/words/fig.html

We had our first membership meeting via Zoom last night! It was great to see the faces of so many Friends!

Don't forget the membership meeting at 7 this very evening!
