As a Tree City USA community, Azle has earned recognition for its commitment to its trees. Arbor Day brings that commitment to life, connecting neighbors with the trees they will care for in the years ahead.
We enjoyed welcoming residents to our booth, answering questions, and talking through the decisions that help a newly planted tree thrive.
It was a pleasure to visit with Mayor Randa Goode and Mayor Pro Tem Stacy Peek and be part of a community event focused on Azle’s future.
Choosing a tree means looking beyond how it looks in the container. We helped residents consider mature size, available space, sunlight, and the care their new trees would need.
With an ISA Certified Arborist available for questions, families could leave with a clearer plan for their own yards.

Practical conversations at our booth focused on the habits that support a tree long after it goes home.
Find the root flare, check for circling roots, and set the tree at the proper planting depth.
Check soil moisture and adjust watering as conditions change. Keep mulch away from the trunk.
Handle trees carefully and protect the trunk from scrapes and lawn equipment. Bark injuries can have lasting effects.

“A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.”
