George Bonnema of Luverne Flowers plants a young tree in front of the Community Education Building Monday, April 30, with the students involved in the Family U After School program. Pictured with him are (clockwise from left) Andrew Kannas, Nathan Kannas, Zoe Forsberg, Christian Rise, Sara Ladd, Brady Wrede, Katie Dahl, Ellen Dahl and Austin Eeten. April 27 was Arbor Day, and another tree dedication ceremony took place at the Mary Jane Brown Good Samaritan Center. The City of Luverne gave MJB two trees, and Mayor Glen Gust joined the residents for coffee after the ceremony, which included a poem read by Helga Rassmussen.
