Since 1965 The Suffield Garden Club has sponsored an Arbor Day Program for the fourth-grade students of Suffield. Each student receives a tree to plant in their yard. This year they were given Cup and Saucer Magnolia trees, which were donated by the Bartlett Tree Service of Simsbury. The 4th-grade teachers of McAlister Intermediate School taught the students the value of planting a tree, and provided a wonderful slide program for the students and their parents.
