In celebration of its Twenty- Fifth Anniversary, Columbia Green has announced a gift of $25,000 to launch a Tree Initiative for the Columbia area in an effort to replenish the canopy trees in the Columbia area.

Colombia City Mayor Robert Coble proclaimed 2009 as the "Year of the Tree" at a Tree Planting Ceremony held last week at the playground of the Drew Wellness Center.
