Help
Plant a Million Trees!
STF
will be partnering with the National Park Service's
Fort Pulaski to plant trees on their "rails to
trails" program during National Public Lands Day
on September 27, 2008. This is a great day of
national service and you can help reach the national
goals of a million trees in one day! Get
more information here or visit the NPLD
website.
Please
Note Our New Office Hours
In
order to better offset our carbon emissions, and due
in part to rising gas costs, our office will be moving
to a 4-day workweek, Monday - Thursday, and will be
open from 9-5 daily. If you need to speak with
someone outside of those hours call our office for emergency
contact instructions. Thanks for understanding!

Sign
Up for our eCommunications
In
an effort to serve our constituency and reduce the number,
kind and frequency of printed materials our office sends
out--thereby not only reducing our environmental footprint
but also attendant overhead and operating costs--our
organization is constantly striving to be more earth-friendly
in our business practices. These steps include using
digital e-Communications such as e-Newsletters , e-Invites
, and
e-Blasts
, as well as changing the type of paper we print on,
organizing an office recycling program, and instituting
sustainable, green business practices throughout our
operations.
If you would like to support these efforts and receive
our
e-communications,
please fill out a form by

Thank
you!

Assessment Seminar photos
On
Wednesday, June 18th a group of volunteers learned how
to perform a tree assessment, a skill which will be
put to use as STF begins to evaluate the health of trees
at past planting sites. Check out the slide show
