David Milarch had the opportunity to speak with Interlochen Center for the Arts students before they planted Archangel Champion Trees on Earth Day 2014. Interlochen music student Emily Spradling of San Francisco performed her powerful, beautiful, yet ominous song, ‘Superman.’
University of Michigan students and faculty members have partnered with Chiwara permaculture and Archangel Ancient Tree Archive to plant twelve Giant sequoia clones from Champion old growth forest trees on the grounds of the Nichols Arboretum on Arbor Day 2014.
This Earth Day/Arbor Day week we are partnering with organizations and supporters worldwide to plant champion trees and help increase awareness of the need for reforestation, including the development of living archives comprised of clones of superior old growth trees.
So many artists are inspired to support Archangel Ancient Tree Archive with their creative talents. We are honored to be the recipient of the proceeds of a wonderful song by musician Jake Allan.
The April 2014 issue of Reader’s Digest features a detailed and fascinating article about our work, and about our co-founder, David Milarch.
