The Campus Planning Office, the Friends of the Maud Gordon Holmes Arboretum, and the Buffalo State Sustainability Committee invite the Buffalo State community to the 2025 Arbor Day Ceremonial Tree Planting, Friday, April 25, at 11:00 a.m., on the east side of Bishop Hall, near Cleveland Circle. 

Campus Arboretum Manager Steven Sypniewski will give his annual State of the Arboretum report. Other campus dignitaries will remark on the role the arboretum plays in the local ecology, stormwater management, providing needed shade on Buffalo State's beautiful urban campus, student recruitment, and retention. A new native Sweet Gum tree is to be planted to add to the nearly 1,500 trees in the campus inventory. Please contact Steven Sypniewski for more information.
