Wordle: ARBOR (Day)

For Wordle ARBOR I thought of Arbor Day, a holiday I remember from elementary school when people made a big deal about planting trees, which I was confused about. I didn’t know the meaning of the word Arbor nor what it had to do with tree planting.

It turns out “Arbor Day—which literally translates to “tree” day from the Latin origin of the word arbor—is a holiday that celebrates the planting, upkeep and preservation of trees.”

Arbor Day was invented by a couple in Nebraska in the 1870s. You can read about the interesting history here.
