Project Learning Tree is turning 40. To commemorate the occasion, the folks at PLT have created a 40th-anniversary logo and a graphic of a 40-year-old tree cookie. Read the Blog "PLT is Turning 40!" that they’ve shared on PLT’s Facebook page. They encourage all to also share with our networks.

During the coming year, follow and share their other posts on Facebook and Twitter as they take a look back – and a look forward. They’ll highlight important facts and milestones, along with stories about the passionate educators and students who are making a difference in their world.
