It’s time for the 13th Annual Neighborhood Forest free tree program, whose aim is to provide free trees to kids every Earth Day.
Since 2010, Neighborhood Forest has reached over 100,000 families and planted over 50,000 (mostly urban and residential) trees through the hands of children and parents across North America.
We endorse this project and are excited to be participating in this wonderful program that teaches kids stewardship through the magic and wonder of planting and watching trees grow.
Please fill out the following online registration form by February 28th and receive a free tree (6-12 inches in size) during Earth Week (April 22-30).
You also have the option to purchase additional trees (via the registration form) for friends and family members ($10 / tree).  The purchase of trees will help fund free trees for more kids.
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) via pickup at the Stirling-Rawdon Public Library.
Planting instructions and species information will be emailed a few days prior to the trees arriving.
Register to receive a free tree for Earth Day to plant with your child at the following link:
