    I'm an avid gardner. As a matter of fact, I have well over 1000 rose bushes planted in my gardens. So I will buy a ton more in the next few days from Chamblee's Nursery in Texas, they are the best! I will take pics of my flowers and show how much I care for nature.

    I hope roses count!

    The 10 dollars for the ten trees is not the best quality trees. But let me tell you guys, they are the size of toothpicks but the cause is amazing! So go for it because once in awhile you will get a decent size tree. Just think it's for a good cause.

    Yeah, you've got to figure what $10 will buy, but like you said, if only one tree makes it, I figure its worth money I'd probably just spend on stupid stuff, anyway!

    Come on, people! Donate some trees, send pictures of your nature, whatever! How cool would it be to be able to say you went out on a limb to be a part of a grass roots movement that really branched off into a huge thing???

    We can doooeeeeet!!!

  • Movin this info to the last page for all to see.....

    This little movement seems to have grown some legs of its own....

    The *** Official Plant a Tree, Play the South*** petition has been merged with this thread.

    Im going to keep posting this until we get lots more people on board.

    We are hoping to get the attention of the band and do something great for the enviroment at the same time. What we would like to do is plant as many trees as possible in order to offset the "Carbon Footprint" (see Activism) of PJ'S tour when they come southward (and I know they will!)

    Below are some suggested links to foundations that will plant trees for small donations. They will even send you a certificate indicating that the trees have been planted and where they were planted. For as little as 10 bucks, only half the cost of your 10c membership, you can get 10 trees planted in honor of PJ's Southern Tour leg in 2007.

    My 10 trees are planted and they should be photosynthesising as we speak. Once my certificate arrives, it will be forwarded to the 10c.

    Folks, its entirely possible, with a little help we could get litterally thousands of trees planted with this little "Southern Homegrown Movement".

    The steps are simple:

    1) Pick a foundation from the links below, or any other that you like.

    2) Purchase your trees

    3) Have your certificate, if applicable, filled out to indicate that these trees were planted in honor of Pearl Jam's Southern US Tour in 2007.
    Or, if you plant a tree at your house, just snap a picture.

    4) Send your certificate or photo to the 10c at the below address.

    It's that easy!

    Let's really get the band's attention in a positive way instead of just bitchin and moaning!

    Re-Forestation Links:

    http://www.arborday.org/join/TICTIM/index.cfm

    http://www.americanforeststore.org/

    http://www.saveourhemlocks.org/

    And the 10c address to mail in that certificate or photo:

    Pearl Jam
    PO Box 4570
    Seattle, WA
    98194-0570

    THANKS AGAIN TO ALL WHO HAVE OFFERED A BOATLOAD OF AWESOME SUGGESTIONS AND HELPFUL LINKS AND THANKS FOR BEING ALL AROUND COOL PEOPLE!

    LET'S MAKE THIS WORK! GO PLANT A TREE!

  • Ok..Ok... I would sooner get rid of my pug than get rid of my arm. Right arm. I love him. His name is Charles and he does like trees. He pees on them.

    Be careful about planting trees in the ground right now, it is still too hot for little ones, unless you want to water them endlessly.

    We plan to buy some large full grown trees in a month AND I am paying a company to move some very large Yucca Cactus and Century Plants (so big they have to be removed by backhoe) when we have the money. She was just gonna get rid of them. So I saved some plants....

    PLAY THE SOUTH!!!!!

  • 10 trees to be planted for "Katrina releaf" project through historictrees.org - the link was on the american forests store. I didn't get a certificate to send though, just an email receipt. Should I just email 10club?

    yeah, I think the only site that sends the certificate is the arbor day site. You can just send PJ your receipt, confirmation or just an email, though! They'll get the point.

    I like that idea, too- just make sure to reference the Tree thing on the envelope so we don't get lumped in with Sally Two-Shoes who just wants Eddie's autograph.
