Foo Fighters Contribute to Texas Trees Foundation 
 Foo Fighters Table2
The Texas Trees Foundation had prime real estate at the Foo Fighters show in Dallas. Here's a picture of our booth staffed by Marjorie Webb, Lucia Alba, and Amy James. Through the generosity of the Foos and the online TreeBank, the Texas Trees Foundation received a percentage of the proceeds from the presale of tickets to the concert.  We appreciate this opportunity to be part of the Dallas concert and the Foo Fighter's commitment to protecting urban forests across the U.S.
 
The Foos are providing the booth and space for local TreeBank branches to distribute information about their organizations and the TreeBank program. 
Volunteers are the Root of our Foundation.  Please come out and help in this most worthwhile planting achievement.  If you are unable to join us on a Saturday, or would like to organize a group event, contact us today for more information.
 
TREEmendous Thanks for all of your support and we hope see you at the farm this spring!
