May 10, 2023 - Center Garden Club members celebrated National Arbor Day a bit early this year on April 14th by purchasing a redbud tree for planting on the Community House grounds.

The club thanks member Marsha Barnett and her husband Billy for actually planting the redbud. The last Friday in April is designated as National Arbor Day while Texas Arbor Day is set for the first Friday in November.

Center Garden Club plants trees in both November and April annually and urges everyone to plant and nurture trees in celebration of the myriad of ways trees enrich our lives.
