Sweeping branches, lush green canopies, stately trunks soaring to great heights, trees are inspiring with their magnificence and their influence on lives and communities. In celebration of the Chicago region’s trees, The Morton Arboretum and Openlands have partnered to launch Tree-mendous Tree Stories, an online collection of curated stories highlighting people’s connections to trees.
