Notes for flag care: Exposing your flag to rain, wind, snow or high winds will shorten the life of your flag considerably. If you leave your flag exposed to the elements, it will greatly reduce the life of your flag. We recommend that you hand-wash your flag with mild soap, rinse thoroughly and air dry. You can also use a dry cleaning service. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Flag History: The Pine Tree Flag features a white field with a pine tree in the center, surrounded by a green border. The pine tree was a symbol of New England and was a symbol of independence and self-reliance, as well as a reminder of the vast forests of the region. The Pine Tree Flag was widely used in New England during the early stages of the American Revolution, and it was a symbol of the growing sentiment among colonists that they should break free from British rule and establish their own independent nation. Although it was eventually replaced by the Stars and Stripes as the national flag, the Pine Tree Flag remains an important part of American history and a symbol of the struggle for independence.
