4th graders receive a gift that keeps on growing

Curious about the tree he’s just been told he’ll be taking home at the end of the day, fourth grader Kaden Herman sneaks a peek. Joe Crowder of the Haxtun Conservation District stays close by to answer questions. Every fourth grader at Holyoke Elementary was given a tree April 17. Each year, Holyoke Lions Club partners with the conservation district to gift the trees and teach students about their importance. — The Holyoke Enterprise | Johnson Publications
