More details:
Sponsored by Cenovus Energy, this initiative is a chance for Crawford County to engage in a meaningful, environmentally sustainable project to help celebrate our nation’s heritage. The Heritage Trees Planting History project will see one oak tree planted in each of Ohio’s 88 counties in 2025 and 2026.
The tree will serve as a living symbol of Ohio’s contributions to the United States, and a reminder of the importance of community, history, and environmental stewardship.
