Predicted #wildfire activity is up for November! More than average wildfires and acreages recorded in Sept. and Oct. in GA, and current La Nina weather pattern typically mean hotter and drier SE conditions through January. Follow all safety guidelines if using fire outdoors!

It's #NationalStressAwarenessDay, and we have the cure you need for your #stress: #TREES! Get outside and let #nature help to melt your stress away. #HealthyTreesHealthyLives 🌲🥾
