Celebrate Maine’s birthday by investing in our shared future and memory by planting a tree for your family to enjoy today, and our descendants to enjoy tomorrow.
Only American Elm left.
The American Elm tree, one of the “Grandest of American Trees,” once lined the streets in many New England towns, including Kennebunk – this tree is even featured on Kennebunk’s Town Seal. By the mid-20th Century, American Elms were mostly killed off by Dutch Elm Disease, and cut down. Luckily, this kit includes a disease-resistant elm tree that will grow for the next 200 years. This tree can grow up to 140 feet high with an 8 foot trunk diameter.
Each Kit comes with:
Peat pot
Soil pellet
Tree seeds*
Mini-32 page book about the tree
*Seeds are guaranteed by our supplier to grow successfully, or your will receive complimentary replacement seeds.
Benefits of planting a tree:
– Two mature trees provide enough oxygen for a family of four.
– Trees absorb carbon. All of the trees in the U.S. absorb roughly 230 million metric tons of carbon per year.
– Trees cool the air and ground around them, and attract life.
– Trees are great noise barriers!
– Trees are the longest-living and largest living organisms on Earth!
– Studies show people are healthier when trees surround homes and workplaces
