Synopsis
SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, Sandy, Mr. Krabs, and Mrs. Puff are eating pancakes outside of Template:Data:Links. Sandy tells them that maple syrup comes from trees as she prepares for Bikini Bottom's Arbor Day celebration. Sandy shows everyone special acorns that she made, that will allow for the growth of saltwater trees, and gives all of them trees to grow. Sandy also mentions to everyone that talking to the trees will help with their growth as well.
SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, Mr. Krabs, and Mrs. Puff are shown using their trees for various purposes. SpongeBob is the first one to find out about his tree, which he names Barky, talking, with the tree insulting him while he reads it a bedtime story. SpongeBob later calls Sandy about Barky, where Sandy first questions about the tree's ability to talk, until Barky answers the phone, rudely talking about SpongeBob in the process. Sandy gets excited about the tree talking, so she rushes over to Template:Data:Links. Barky then asks to be taken outside.
SpongeBob and Sandy take Barky through town, where it complains about the climate outside. Everyone else's trees are shown, with Mrs. Puff's tree driving out of control, Mr. Krabs' tree insulting the Krusty Krab customers, Squidward's tree criticizing his music ability, and Patrick's tree questioning his taste in television for watching The Sir Urchin & Snail Fail Show!
Mr. Krabs, Mrs. Puff, and Squidward throw their trees away, although several new trees grow soon afterwards and cause havoc throughout Bikini Bottom. Mr. Krabs, Mrs. Puff, Squidward, and the townspeople approach Sandy to complain about their trees. Squidward suggests to burn them, which SpongeBob disapproves of. Sandy devises a plan, with SpongeBob later shown advertising a "Log-a-palooza" for the trees.
The trees attend the extravaganza, where Sandy shows her makeover machine, the Arbor Revitalizer. Patrick's tree goes to try the invention, as it is revealed that the machine turns trees into chairs. The rest of the trees attempt to run away out of panic, but Patrick's tree claims to love being a chair. The rest of the trees go into the machine and are turned into furniture. The Bikini Bottomites are shown enjoying the new furniture, but after two chairs mess with SpongeBob and Sandy, Sandy decides on skipping Arbor Day the following year.
Production
This episode was confirmed by Cartoonlounge.de on December 20, 2022.[1]
On March 3, 2023, Vincent Waller stated that the episode had been through the final mixing phase, indicating that it was near completion.[2] He also confirmed that Patrick, Squidward, and Mr. Krabs would appear in the episode.[3]
On April 21, 2023, in response to a fan implying the question of why the segment wouldn't premiere on Arbor Day,[4] Waller stated that it was shifted around with other episodes to make way for an extended "special" episode ("Dopey Dick") and a short ("Plankton and the Beanstalk.") However, he believed that when the episodes are released to the public, "folks will be happy we did."[5]
Nearly a week later on April 27, Waller stated that he and the crew approved the final mix of this segment and its sister episode, "Ain't That the Tooth," stating that fans would not have to "wait very long" for the episode to come out in the United States.[6]
On May 5, 2023, this segment, along with "Dopey Dick" and "Plankton and the Beanstalk" were officially completed and delivered to Nickelodeon Animation Studio.

Release
- This episode is available on the SpongeBob SquarePants Vol. 23 digital collection and The Complete Thirteenth Season DVD.
Trivia
General
- The title card background is similar to the background used in the season 1 episodes "Ripped Pants" and "Walking Small," except that the title card appears to be dark green instead of bright yellow.
- This episode has a total of 15 bubble transitions, which is the most of any episode in the main series.
- This episode marks Sandy's first major role in season 13.
- The last major role she played was in the season 12 episode "A Cabin in the Kelp."
- Coincidentally, in two of the three major roles she's had this season (this episode and "Hot Crossed Nuts"), Mr. Krabs references his navy days.
- This is the second Nickelodeon show to have an Arbor Day centered episode, the first being the Harvey Beaks episode, "Arbor Day."
- This episode was paired up with a rerun of "Mandatory Music" during the original American airing.[7]
Episode references
- The scene when The Sir Urchin & Snail Fail Show! plays on Patrick's TV is the same clip as the one in the opening of "Library Cards."
- SpongeBob's hairdo and beard when Patrick mistakes Arbor Day with Barber Day resembles his hair in "SpongeHenge."
Cultural references
- This is the first episode to be themed around Arbor Day.
Errors
- When Patrick says he prefers his jelly "on tap," his eyebrows become a single line for a few frames, before returning to the usual thick Z shape.
- When the episode cuts to an afar shot of all the characters talking to their trees, Squidward's forehead brows are missing.
- When Patrick opens his rock, he has a green chair and a gray TV set. After he enters, both are made of sand.
- When Squidward kicks his tree out of his house, Template:Data:Links is missing.
