Many volunteers built this amazing place through which children and parents will explore nature for years to come.

“I am the Lorax. I speak for the trees.” Dr. Seuss’s beloved story teaches kids to treat the planet with kindness and stand up and speak up for others.

The book’s final pages teach us that just one small seed, or one small child, can make a difference.
