We like to celebrate Arbor Day by having a tree photo contest. We LOVE getting so many unique and creative photos from people all over the world each year. Folks send in photos taken on vacation, on hikes, and even photos from their own yards. Nature is amazing, right?
And wowzers...did we get some incredible entries this year! Our tree loving friends submitted photos from Russia, Germany, Ukraine, and all over the U.S. Thanks for participating everyone!
Check out the photos and winners below. Also, we thought we'd share some of the comments people left after they voted, which are sweet and thoughtful evidence that there is A LOT of TREE LOVE in the world! :)
