Keep America Beautiful’s National Planting Day kicks off Sat., Sept. 10

Keep America Beautiful, the nation’s leading nonprofit which envisions a country where every community is a clean, green and beautiful place to live, is mobilizing Americans to bolster their local ecosystems by planting native species of trees, shrubs and plants for its fifth annual National Planting Day.

National Planting Day, which will be observed on Sat., Sept. 10 and throughout the month of September, is a fall initiative of Keep America Beautiful’s Great American Cleanup, the nation’s largest community improvement program.

This year, Keep America Beautiful is encouraging its 620-plus community-based affiliates, partner organizations and other National Planting Day participants to “Keep America Bee-utiful” by focusing their efforts on planting pollinators.
