Saluting Branches Through the Years

A Growing Tradition of Service

Since its first National Day of Service in 2015, Saluting Branches has united volunteers, arborists, sponsors, and community partners around one shared purpose: honoring America’s veterans through service.

What began as a single volunteer effort has grown into a powerful annual tradition, providing tree and landscape care to veteran-dedicated properties across North America. Each event reflects the collective commitment of individuals and organizations working together to preserve places of remembrance and honor the service and sacrifice of those who served.
