The San Clemente Garden Club understands the importance of planting trees and the need to provide information about the selection and care of trees. We also feel it is important for the club to support and communicate tree-related events and activities in support of maintaining our environment.

California Arbor Day Week

Annually March 7th through the 14th

What is California Arbor Week?

Unlike most Americans who celebrate Arbor Day at the end of April, California celebrates Arbor Day early on March 7th in honor of famed California Horticulturalist Luther Burbank’s birthday. In 2011, the California State Assembly and Senate approved Resolution ACR 10  (Dickinson), making California Arbor Day a week-long celebration during March 7 – 14 of every year.
