Residents across Tennessee are invited to reserve native trees to plant at their homes, farms and in their communities during the 11th annual Tennessee Tree Day event, taking place on March 15.
Online tree reservations are open to the public at tectn.org/TennesseeTreeDay now through March 2. residents are encouraged to reserve trees as soon as possible to get the best selection. Supplies are limited and trees are available on a first-come, first-served basis, while supplies last.
Participants may choose from among 165 locations across Tennessee to pick up their trees on the weekend of March 15. Tree Day is organized every year by Tennessee Environmental Council (TEC), a non-profit organization.
Participants must register online to reserve trees, and will choose their pick-up location, dates and times when they register. A small donation is requested for every tree reserved.
