Nearly 2,000 trees — Colorado blue spruce, Black Hills spruce, ponderosa pine and bur oak — may soon take root in eastern Montana, thanks to the Arbor Day tree distribution by PPL Montana employees at the Colstrip power plant.
On behalf of the employees there, the Colstrip power plant purchased and distributed 700 trees last week for the students and teachers at the elementary, junior high and high schools in Colstrip.
