21st March - International Day of Forests.
The International Day of Forests was established on the 21st day of March, by resolution of the United Nations General Assembly on November 28, 2012. Each year, various events celebrate and raise awareness of the importance of all types of forests, and trees outside forests, for the benefit of current and future generations (wikipedia)
This global celebration of forests provides a platform to raise awareness of the importance of all types of woodlands and trees, and celebrate the ways in which they sustain and protect us.
"If a tree is saved even at cost of one’s head, it’s worth it" said the noted activist Amrita Devi Bishnoi. This is the reason why India has so many festivals related to trees. One of them is the Van Mahotsav Day or the Forest Day. It was started as a crusade with the lofty purpose of saving the mother earth. (Source)

This is indeed a great initiative @NareshDarji
I know that @IlankovanT is already running something similar, so I believe you can coordinate this kind of work
