SUMMARY:Alachua County Arbor Day Celebration
LOCATION:E.P. Powers Park on Newnan’s Lake 5910 SE Hawthorne Road, Gainesville, FL
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Alachua County invites the public to a tree-filled celebration for Florida 
 Arbor Day 2026. This year’s celebration will be held at E.P. Powers Park on
  Newnan’s Lake on January 17, 2026, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.\n\nThe celebrati
 on offers multiple opportunities to learn about and celebrate trees. Guest 
 speakers and local tree experts will discuss tree care topics such as light
 ing protection, palm diseases and the importance of trees to butterflies an
 d bees. Participants will help plant trees, learn about caring for trees an
 d take a young tree home.\n\nFree native flowering trees, vital for our nat
 ive pollinators, will be available to Arbor Day participants while supplies
  last. \n\n“In Florida, we celebrate Arbor Day in January because the short
 er days and cooler temperatures are the perfect conditions for planting tre
 es, but it's is also a great time to study trees,” said Alachua County Arbo
 rist Lacy Holtzworth. “County residents love to learn, so we encourage folk
 s to come to our Arbor Day celebration with questions and a curiosity about
  these magnificent trees living and growing amongst us.”\n\nFlorida Arbor D
 ay, celebrated during the third week of January, traces back to 1872 when N
 ebraska resident Sterling Morton inspired the planting of a million trees. 
 Today, Arbor Day is a cherished tradition across the country, honoring the 
 vital roles trees play in our environment and communities.
