LINCOLN, Neb., April 17, 2018 /3BL Media/ – The Arbor Day Foundation has announced a new partnership with Traeger Wood Fired Grills as part of the company’s commitment to sustainable practices. The partnership is launching with a kick-off tree planting event in Millcreek, Utah on April 18 at 9 a.m. Traeger employees will help plant 20 much-needed trees in Scott Avenue Park (3475 S 800 E, Millcreek, UT 84106). Arbor Day Foundation’s Alliance for Community Tree member, TreeUtah, is facilitating the planting.

TreeUtah and Traeger selected Scott Avenue Park to help restore a community gathering space in need. The park has not had any tree plantings in several years and recently removed dead trees from its premises. The event will seek to improve and beautify the park to benefit the surrounding community in Millcreek.

“We applaud Traeger’s efforts in using trees to further the company’s sustainability goals,” said Dan Lambe, president, Arbor Day Foundation. “Because of their commitment, not only will the trees planted bring beauty to the area, they will bring environmental benefits such as cleaner air and water to the area.”

In addition to the Utah kick-off, Traeger is supporting the planting of 5,000 trees in the Mississippi River Valley planting effort in 2018.
