On the day of April 10, 1872 in Nebraska City,Nebraska J. Sterling Morton started Arbor Day. Arbor Day is a day were we celebrate trees and all the wonderful things about them. Around the Nation kids and adults a like plant trees in the memory of the holiday, it is the 'party' of the holiday. The back story of Arbor day is very interesting. Back then there were very limited supplies of trees. Most homes were made out of grass and dirt. J Sterling Morton had the idea to found Arbor Day to plant trees and make more supplies and home tools for the treeless state of Nebraska. J Sterling Morton went to the Michigan university at Ann Arbor. Besides America many countries all over the celebrate Arbor Day in different names and different dates.
