APACC District Poe Tree Contest

Do you love trees? Help us celebrate 2021 Arbor Day through poetry. DDOT's Urban Forestry Division is launching DC's first ever all-ages Poe-Tree Contest. Any style will do, the only requirement is that all poems are original work AND highlight a benefit that trees provide. Prizes include: a tree planting at a school or park of your choice, recycled urban wood bench installed at a school or park of your choice, and a pop-up arboretum at the DPR park of your choice. Runner-up prizes for each category include tree cookies made from recycled city trees.
