To celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Macon County Conservation District, the 45th anniversary of the Macon County Conservation Foundation, Arbor Day, and Earth Day, we’re planting 1,000 trees that will grow into an oak savanna at Fort Daniel Conservation Area—benefiting our community for generations.

We invite Macon County residents and surrounding communities to roll up their sleeves and be part of something truly lasting. This hands-on fundraiser is your chance to plant a tree, leave your mark, and someday return with family and friends to say, “I helped build this.” Whether you join us as an individual, family, group, club, business, or organization, your efforts will take root in the future of Macon County—one tree at a time.
