While the trees will make difference to the environment, a few hundred of them also pay tribute to the Phillies.
The Pennsylvania Horticultural Society has teamed up with PGW and the Phillies to plant 2,000 trees in communities throughout the region.It's all in an effort to have an impact on the environment while also paying tribute to an impactful Philadelphia team.
"Sometimes people think of trees as just nice things to have around them, but we know thanks to a lot of scientific research that they're essential infrastructure for healthy neighborhoods," said Tim Ifill, the director of trees for PHS. Others will find their way to the suburbs in communities like New Britain, Hatboro, and Upper Darby Township.
While the trees will make difference to the environment, a few hundred of them also pay tribute to the Phillies, a team that's surely made a difference in the city.
