"A tree has roots in the soil yet reaches to the sky." ~ Wangari Maathai A beautiful reminder from the late Kenyan Nobel Laureate who founded the Green Belt Movement, an environmental organization focused on women. "It tells us that in order to aspire we need to be grounded and that no matter how high we go it is from our roots that we draw sustenance."

Happy Arbor Day! Many of us may be stuck at home, but we hope you're able to enjoy the trees nearby. And if you're able, why not plant one? As the saying goes, "The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The next best time is today."
