Free Tree Giveaway from Neighborhood Forest

This spring, we are thrilled to announce our participation in Neighborhood Forest’s 16th Annual Free Tree Program as part of our Earth Week celebrations from April 22nd to 27th! This wonderful program teaches youth the importance of environmental stewardship through the magic and wonder of planting and watching trees grow. Since 2010, Neighborhood Forest has mobilized over 2,000 schools, libraries, and youth groups, engaged over 500,000 volunteers, and given over 197,000 children in all 50 states (and 6 provinces in Canada) the opportunity to plant their very own tree.

Please fill out the following online registration form by March 15th and receive a free tree (6-12 inches in size) during Earth Week (April 22-27). The tree species will be announced in early April. Neighborhood Forest aims to provide native and / or fruit bearing trees in all regions they serve. 

Trees will be delivered to us and we will arrange to get the trees in the hands of your children on or around Earth Day (April 22nd) either via pick up or sending home with your child(ren).

Instructions on planting and caring for the trees, along with species details, will be emailed a few days before the tree delivery and will also be accessible on the Neighborhood Forest Website
