This is a giveaway of 2,020 trees for Howard County residents to plant a little bit of hope and encourage positive growth in our community.  

There are four tree species to choose from: Redbud, Flowering Dogwood, Black Gum, and Red Maple. Each tree is native to Maryland, meaning that it is acclimated to our climate and provides benefits to our local pollinators and wildlife. Residents may choose up to three trees and will be responsible for picking up, planting, and caring for their tree(s). Pickup dates are Thursday, September 24 from 2:00-7:00 p.m. and Saturday, September 26 from 10:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m. Each pickup day/time will have two locations, West Friendship Park and Rockburn Branch Park.   

For further information about the 2020 Tree Giveaway, including the registration link, descriptions of the trees, and details on the pickup locations, please visit www.livegreenhoward.com/treegiveaway.
