National Cherry Blossom Festival

In April the National Cherry Blossom Festival celebrated the 100th anniversary of the 3,000 cherry trees that were sent from Japan to Washington, D.C. Tsuru Island was selected as a recipient to receive young trees and seeds as part of the event. Unfortunately, with the tsunami and economic difficulties in Japan, we won't get our gift this year. Hope is that we will get them next year.
