We invite you to explore the profound connection between faith and environmental stewardship through the power of trees. Join us as we partner with the Maryland Department of Natural Resources to share how congregations can transform their spaces with tree plantings that nurture creation and combat climate change. Hear inspiring stories from congregations who have embraced this program, growing both their sacred spaces and their commitment to protecting the environment. Discover how planting trees can deepen your faith community's impact on the planet and your neighbors.
