Thank you, Kristi Higgins and The Progress-Index, for such detailed coverage of the Project Plant It! event to celebrate Arbor Day and National Wildflower Week. It was great to have you on board the trolley for this fun and enriching outing at VSU's Randolph Farm!

Virginia State University's fluffy, angelic-looking guard dog Montana looked adorably fierce standing amongst a field of yellow buttercups.

The first Arbor Day occurred 150 years ago in 1872. The founder, J. Sterling Morton, would be delighted to know that students like these at Leaphart Elementary in Columbia, SC and across the Dominion Energy footprint share his love of trees by participating in Project Plant It! Special thanks to ABC Columbia for dropping by!

Today is Arbor Day, and students right here in the Midlands celebrated in a special way. Several classes at Leaphart Elementary gathered outside the school to plant a tree with the help of Dominion Energy.
