SUMMARY:America250 Heritage Tree Planting
DESCRIPTION:A ceremonial tree planting will take root in the Miami County Courthouse Plaza as part of the Heritage Trees: Planting History program under America 250-Ohio\, the official state commission responsible for spearheading Ohio’s celebrations and commemorations around America’s semiquincentennial in 2026. \nThroughout 2025 and 2026\, Heritage Trees will be planted in all 88 of Ohio’s counties. In Miami County the tree will be planted by the Miami County Courthouse Plaza on April 24\, 2026 at 1:00 p.m.. The Courthouse was chosen as the site for the Heritage Tree because the Courthouse has been a symbol of history\, justice and longevity in the community. \nThe Heritage Trees initiative draws inspiration from the historic Liberty Tree in Boston during the Revolutionary War period. The Heritage Trees program aims to commemorate America’s 250th Anniversary by planting native-to-Ohio oak trees across the state. Throughout 2025 and 2026\, America 250-Ohio will offer each Ohio county an oak tree in honor of America’s 250th birthday. \nThe Heritage Trees program is made possible by Presenting Sponsor Cenovus Energy. The program was created in partnership with Dawes Arboretum\, Cox Arboretum MetroPark\, Holden Forests & Gardens\, Keep Ohio Beautiful\, the Ohio Department of Natural Resources\, Rowe Arboretum\, and Secrest Arboretum. \nAbout America 250-Ohio  \nIn 2026\, the United States will celebrate its semiquincentennial\, which is the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. Each state has been encouraged to create a celebration and commemoration of this anniversary to reflect the unique character and contributions of each state to the nation over the past 250 years. Ohio is fully embracing this opportunity. The Ohio Commission for the Semiquincentennial (aka America 250-Ohio Commission or AM250-OH) was created by the Ohio legislature and launched on March 1\, 2022. The charge of the AM250-OH Commission is “…to plan\, encourage\, develop\, and coordinate the commemoration of the two hundred fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the United States and the impact of Ohioans on the nation’s past\, present\, and future.” — Ohio Revised Code (149.309).
