On this day in 1984 Anthony Earl, Governor of Wisconsin, declared it Mully Taylor Day in the state of Wisconsin! Taylor was our first and longest-tenured executive director, serving from 1944-1975. During his time at TFT, Taylor helped accomplish many goals, including overseeing the distribution of millions of tree seedlings, as well as establishing the roots of our environmental education programs. Mully believed that "People can accomplish great things when they work together," which is a value that persists at TFT today. Happy Mully Taylor Day!

Last week, 7th and 8th graders from Laona MS visited TFT and learned about animal adaptations and navigating with a compass (7th grade), and canoeing and lake ecology (8th grade)- and all in a single day's visit too! Thanks for visiting!

Our maintenance truck went through the ultimate glow-up last week! One of our incredible donors, who wishes to remain anonymous, saw a need and generously gifted us a new vehicle to help with all the heavy lifting around campus.

At TFT, education is at the heart of everything we do—but it takes a strong foundation to keep our campus running! Whether your passion lies in supporting student scholarships, campus maintenance, wildlife & animal care, or hospitality, there is a place for you to make a difference too. 🌲💚

Happy Indigenous People's Day to all.
We here at Trees for Tomorrow appreciate those who were on this land before us and acknowledge that they are still very much here in the great Northwoods. Whenever we write or edit our curriculum, we consider how we can- respectfully- incorporate TEK (traditional ecological knowledge) and indigenous ways of knowing as appropriate. We continue to work to learn new TEK through attending indigenous led professional development and are grateful for the knowledge that has been shared with us so far.
