Millen receives national recognition for forestry

Millen has been named a Tree City USA community by the Arbor Day Foundation, to honor its commitment to community forestry. It is the eighth year Millen has received this national recognition.

The Tree City USA program is sponsored by the Arbor Day Foundation, in cooperation with the National Association of State Foresters and the USDA Forest Service.

Millen has met the four standards to become a Tree City USA community: a tree board or department, a tree care ordinance, a comprehensive community forestry program and an Arbor Day observance.
