Each year, the City of Lebanon in conjunction with Tree City USA, celebrations Arbor Day! Lebanon Recreation determines if a tree will be planted in the parks, at one of the local schools, or another destination in need of some shade in years to come.  

Date: Friday, April 28, 2023

Time: 12 NOON

Location: Colburn Park

Trees are assets to our community when properly planted and maintained. They help improve the visual appeal of our neighborhoods, increase property values, reduce home cooling costs, remove air pollutants and provide wildlife habitat, among many other benefits.

Thank you to all those who help make our participation in this program possible!

If you have questions about this event, please contact the Lebanon Recreation, Arts, and Parks Department. 

When Mt Lebanon 4th graders were asked why we should plant trees:

“For Beauty!”

“I like to play on them and climb them.”

“A place for bees and butterflies to be.”

“I like to draw them, because they turn pretty colors in the Fall and they look good in photo shoots.”

And a budding scientist replied, “Because the trees convert CO2 into Oxygen for us to breathe.”

Lots of good reasons to plant trees!
