Just imagine how happy you would feel to be welcomed home every day by these scraggly old oak trees. Experts estimate that our "urban forest" - that's the tree coverage in the nation's urban areas - has declined by over 4 million trees a year.

Another great reason to give a tree in memory or celebration. Learn more at California ReLeaf.
