This is a way to have a good, old-fashioned time while learning about the spirit of environmental stewardship fostered by Arbor Day founder J. Sterling Morton. Free seedling trees and wildflower seeds will be given away on a first come, first served basis, and tree experts will be on hand to offer tree care advice. Everyone is welcome to participate in our Piewalk and Pie Garden games, and to sample the creations of our Apple House chefs, Wirth said. We ll offer cooking demonstrations and taste tests of candy apple pie, hazelnut biscotti, apple-soycake, and more gourmet recipes. We have more activities planned than ever before at Arbor Day Farm.
