All are welcome to celebrate Arbor Day at New Jersey’s very first state forest, Bass River State Forest. The event runs between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. on April 30 at the Interpretive Center, just past campsite 13.

The seasonal naturalist will lead the event with free educational activities for the entire family, such as Arbor Day crafts and the reading of Shel Silverstein’s classic The Giving Tree. Attendees will take home an Arbor Day coloring book and a free tree.
