Free Seedlings Available April 24

From 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM on April 24, 2021, residents will be able to pick up free tree seedlings at Rock Spring Park at the pavilion nearest to the Senior Center. Seedlings, available on a first come, first served basis, come with instructions on how to store, care for, and plant the trees. The guides help residents choose the right place on a property to plant a tree while keeping in mind the tree’s full-grown size in the future. Residents should plant the seedlings within two days after pick-up in order to prevent the roots from drying out. Masks and social distancing measures will be used during sapling distribution.
