Since 1952, Germany has celebrated the nationwide Arbor Day on April 25. In terms of content, it is continued in Germany in the Day of the Avenue on October 20, which has been celebrated since 2008.
However, the original initiative for a separate Arbor Day goes back almost 100 years to the U.S. journalist and farmer Julius Sterling Morton (1832 - 1902) and the year 1872. Morton had submitted the request for an Arbor Day resolution to the local government of the US state of Nebraska in that year.
Morton's request at the time: The state, which at the time was very low on trees, was to be reforested through the annual planting event. And with great success. On April 10, 1872, citizens and farmers in Nebraska planted more than one million trees.
