Earth Day with OMSI

Trees for Tots: Teufel Teams up with OMSI

 

Earth Day was a huge success this year!  With environmental projects going on all over the country, Teufel did their part.

We had a tree plant exhibit at OMSI this past Wednesday.  Kids of all ages learned how to plant small boxwood shrubs.  They learned about the importance of trees and even got to take one home to care for.  Teufel nursery Inc donated over 275 8" tall boxwoods for this special event.

 

This lesson will help the children understand the importance of giving back to the environment.  We will also be co-led a special tree planting ceremony along the river and gave instruction on how to plant an eight foot tall Oregon White Oak.  This ceremony will commemorate Oregon's 150th anniversary and Teufel is proud to have donated this special native tree.
