Spring 2014 Tree Giveaway
Sunday, April 6, 2014
12 noon to 2 pm
C4B Community Garden (corner of Newkirk Avenue and East 8th St.)
125 trees will be given away, and lots of information for all new owners about how to get the trees safely planted, and how to take care of them so they make it to maturity—so they give their owners shade, beauty, and the satisfaction of watching the grow.
