Ain’t no stoppin’ us now…
October 9th, 2008 by Rachael KahneThanks to our growing customer base, we’ve successfully planted 16,050 trees since January. I’ll spell that out, just so the significance of that number really soaks in: Sixteen thousand fifty trees. Some may call that a friggin’ forest. And I’d agree.
So let’s keep the proverbial ball rolling, shall we? Take a moment to vote where the trees from our new October customers will be planted.
Where should we plant October’s trees?
- Washington (32%, 18 Votes)
- Rhode Island (30%, 17 Votes)
- Oregon (25%, 14 Votes)
- Vermont (14%, 8 Votes)
Total Voters: 57
Loading …September hit the bullseye in the Buckeye state. With 397 new accounts coming on board, we planted 1,985 trees in Ohio. If you’d like to get your state on our tree planting list, reach out to the sweet folks at Plant-It 2020 and let them know. How ’bout a goal of getting all fifty states up there by 2010? Who’s with me now?!

All the States you mention as tree candidates except Rhode Island have more trees than they need. How about focusing not so much on States but on locations near cities where suburban building has caused the most trees to be destroyed. I offer my own county, Rockland County NY as a prime example. We could use more trees along the Hudson River to, if you’ll pardon the pun, shore up the shore.

I would like to vote for Colorado. We have been getting attacked by the pine beetle and several forests are completely wiped out! Thank you!!
If we can only vote for the states mentioned, I’ll vote for Rhode Island.

Thanks for the responses, guys! Through our partnership with Plant-It 2020, we’re able to plant trees in the non-reforestation areas they’ve secured. While Colorado wasn’t on our poll this month, I can guarantee it will be very soon. So sorry to hear about those pesky pine beetles!
