Where would we be without trees? These noble protectors give us so much and ask for so little. Their list of good deeds is long and generous: from cleaning our air and water to keeping us nourished and healthy to offering us an outdoor space that improves our mood, our health, and overall well-being.

Through our partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation, we have given away 1,434 trees to help our customers reduce their energy consumption and save money through our free energy-saving tree program. The Arbor Day Foundation is the world’s largest membership nonprofit dedicated to planting trees. Arbor Day Foundation Energy-Saving Trees program helps utility providers distribute free trees to their customers while providing the knowledge of where best to plant them. By planting the right tree in the right place, you are assisting us in providing safe, reliable power you depend on, and you can increase your home’s energy efficiency through shade and windbreak for decades to come. The right tree in the right place can help a homeowner save up to 30 percent on their electric bill. In addition, planting trees in your yard can provide tangible community benefits like stormwater runoff reduction, improved air quality, and beautification of your neighborhood.
