There are two programs in North Texas this fall to help beautify our neighborhoods by providing free trees!
For Dallas residents, the City of Dallas is introducing a new program called “Branch Out Dallas” on Saturday, October 27th. City officials and representatives of Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service will discuss the benefits of trees for urban environments and providing an overview of tree care. The first 100 free trees of the new program will be handed out, with expanding availability between November 1, 2018 and January 11, 2019.
The kick-off event will take place at 10 am, Saturday, October 27th at
Kiestwood Assembly of God
2716 Kiest Blvd
Dallas TX 75233

If you are not a Dallas resident, you can request a free tree through a partnership of Oncor and the Arbor Day Foundation. Trees can be mailed or can be delivered, as available. Plantings will begin this fall.
