KUDOS TO CHERRYLAKE: Cherrylake, one of the region’s largest employers and the leading tree grower in the Southeast, has donated 48 100-gallon live oak trees to a half mile stretch of the South Lake Trail. Over the years, Cherrylake has provided over 10,800 trees. “Some of the trees we are planting have the potential to live for thousands of years,” Timothee Sallin, Co-CEO of Cherrylake, says in a news release. “By planting trees today, we are embracing a long and optimistic view of the future for our planet and for many generations of Floridians to come.”
CHARMED CENTENNIAL: February in Groveland was filled with celebrations in honor of its 100th birthday, but there is still the rest of this year to celebrate the start of another 100 years to come for the City with Natural Charm. Additionally, the South Lake Chamber of Commerce presented Groveland with the prestigious Heritage Award, which recognizes a business or organization that has been in existence for over 25 years and consistently demonstrated a commitment to business.
