Words of the Declaration of Independence Still Prove Powerful
Any July newsletter article, by rights, should be patriotic and this one will not disappoint. The Fourth of July is known as Independence Day but it is not the day the Declaration of Independence was signed (August 2, 1776). Nor is it the day that Thomas Jefferson wrote the first draft (sometime in June, 1776). Nor is it the start of the American Revolution (April, 1775). The Continental Congress approved the wording of the Declaration of Independence on July 4th, 1776. Nearly 240 years later, the words hold the power to move and inspire.

Hamilton County Fall 2014 Tree Program
Your Soil and Water Conservation District has joined the regional efforts of Taking Root and Releaf Cincinnati to inspire our County to better preserve and maintain existing trees, and to plant two million new trees-one for each citizen in the region-by the year 2020. Taking Root is a collaborative partnership within the eight counties of the Tri-State region. Its mission is to raise awareness of the current crisis taking place in our tree canopies. Threats include the invasive emerald ash borer as well as other pests and diseases responsible for the loss of millions of this region's native trees, posing a serious threat to the local ecosystem, and which will impact our quality of life in many ways.
Due to the District's generous cost-share efforts, any Hamilton County landowner may order one, 5 to 7 Gal. containerized tree that is 1 1/2 inch caliper and approximately 4 - 7 feet tall. Trees may only be ordered for planting in Hamilton County. Retail value of these trees ranges from $50 - $75. Your cost is only $5.00.
