Elizabethtown Community and Technical College (ECTC) recently received a Plant for the Planet grant from LG&E and KU to purchase trees planted on ECTC’s campus. Based on the United Nations Environment Program’s Plant for the Planet: Billion Tree Campaign, the purpose of the grant is to encourage organizations with a record of successful tree planting to continue their efforts. ECTC used the grant to purchase and plant native trees on campus, including oak, redbud, dogwood and maple trees.
