The Greater Wenatchee Arbor Day Association is hosting its annual Arbor Day Plant Distribution event this Saturday, offering free Fraser Fir, White Lilac, Red Osier Dogwood, and Woods Rose plants to residents across the Wenatchee Valley. The event will take place at four locations - the Foothills Community Center in Wenatchee, East Wenatchee City Hall, Entiat City Hall, and Martin's Market in Cashmere.

Why it matters

The annual Arbor Day plant giveaway is an important community event that promotes environmental stewardship and tree planting across the region. By providing free, native plant species, the Arbor Day Association aims to encourage residents to incorporate more greenery into their yards and public spaces.

The details

Supplies are limited for the four plant varieties being distributed, and the Association is suggesting a $5 donation per plant. The event runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at each location, except for East Wenatchee which will run until 3 p.m. The Arbor Day Association educates the public about tree and shrub care and growth, and organizes this annual giveaway to support local tree planting efforts.
