Happy Arbor Day!
As we celebrate Arbor Day , we're excited to plant some beautiful new hydrangea trees and shine a spotlight on the incredible trees that have shaped Forest Hill Cemetery for generations.

Did you know that since the mid-1800's, Forest Hill has been home to an amazing variety of trees? From basswood and beech to catalpa, cedar, and cherry, many were planted as part of the cemetery's original landscape design. The majestic pin oaks lining the carriage path and the white pine grove planted in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps are just a couple of the highlights of our living history.

We're taking the first steps towards becoming a Level I Arboretum, which would make Forest Hill the first arboretum in Utica! We need at least 25 labeled tree species to qualify, and we're well on our way.

Stay tuned, and come take a walk under the branches sometime soon!
