Toddlers plant trees in honor of Arbor Day at Pines Hills Nursery in Pass Christian

Toddlers got their hands dirty on Toddler Tuesday at Pine Hills Nursery in honor of Arbor Day.

Pass Christian Library and the Pass Christian Garden Club started the event off by reading stories and singing about plants and trees.

The Harrison County Soil and Water Conservation donated the tree saplings for the toddlers to plant them in soil pots. The families were able to take their trees home for future care.

Pine Hills has Toddler Tuesday the first Tuesday of every month and its open to the public and it is free. Pine Hills Nursery Manager Rachel Bond said, “We love it. We love having the kids out with their parents, families come together, they enjoy it so much. It’s great to see children out getting their hands dirty, playing and learning about bugs, soil, and trees. So, it’s a really great feeling to instill that love on to future generations.”
