Happy Arbor Day!

President Theodore Roosevelt replanting a Bahia tree originally planted in 1874 in Riverside, California., ca. 1904

Another product of yesterday’s Take your Child to Work Day at the National Archives, our 8-year-old junior curator has this to say for his choice:

“I just thought it looked cool because of Teddy Roosevelt and all the people.”

What kind of tree would you like to plant today?
