Welcome to the Home of Arbor Day in historic Nebraska City. For more than 150 years, folks in this small town on the Missouri River have faithfully planted trees. Oaks, pines, maples, elms, willows, sycamores. Flowering trees, conifers, deciduous. What started as a plan to make the empty plains welcoming to settlers and provide shade, shelter, and building materials has turned into a quest for environmental preservation – a chance to enrich the earth for future generations. Along the way, what became known as Arbor Day grew into a weekend-long celebration. And not only in our own community…Arbor Day may have started in the small town of Nebraska City, Nebraska, but it is now recognized in all 50 states and in many countries around the world. Come and visit us this Arbor Day! Make a weekend out of it; stay a few days, visit some museums, shop a bit, see the sights…plant a tree! Check out all our fabulous Nebraska City Museums! Make a weekend out of it and book an overnight stay ! Hungry , we have places to stop? Need to do some shopping , we have something for everyone? 7 Ways to Experience Arbor Day in the Home of Arbor Day Arbor Day Festival April 25-27, 2025 Arbor Day Schedule of Events Special thanks to our 2025 Sponsors Plan your Arbor Day 2025 weekend Filter by Date Filter April 22 - Tues.
