A tree grows in Oakland & Wayne County

Or rather more trees.

Michigan Green Schools within the Rouge River Watershed were given native trees of their choice to plant and nurture, helping to further green their communities.
 
Excerpt:
 
"The tree species offered were all native to Michigan and included red bud, red oak, red maple and sugar maple. The trees were 1.5 inch caliper and depending on the variety, 5’-12’ in height. Wayne County offered trees to 83 recognized schools within the Wayne County portion of the Rouge watershed and Oakland County offered trees to 43 schools."
