Arbor Week Reform.
This bill proposes to officially change the timing of Arbor Week in North Carolina from March to November. It achieves this by amending state law to designate the week containing November 15 as the new Arbor Week. Additionally, the legislation allocates $10,000 to the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services to create educational materials for these celebrations. The funds are specifically intended for the 2025-2026 fiscal year to support the reorganized observance.
