Arbor Day 2009

On January 4, 1872, J. Sterling Morton of Nebraska City, Nebraska proposed a tree-planting holiday. His idea was so popular that it has been estimated that more than one million trees were planted in Nebraska on that first Arbor Day. Slowly, the idea began to catch on in other states, and in 1970, the last friday in April was proclaimed to be National Arbor Day.
So, we at BMA would like to take this opportunity to thank all our clients and subcontractors for contributing to the planting of 36,676 trees and shrubs since the year 2000.

Please visit this link, http://www.bma-design.com/Page8.html to view the list of clients and subcontractors that have been responsible for helping us all breathe a little easier.

"Each generation takes the earth as trustees." J. Sterling Morton
