Free Energy-Saving Tree Giveaway 2022

Free trees now available. Get a free shade tree for your yard. Get yours today.

Through a partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation, we are giving away free trees this week to help you reduce energy consumption and save money. By planting trees in strategic locations, you can increase your home’s energy efficiency through shade and windbreak for decades to come. In addition, planting trees in your yard can provide tangible community benefits like stormwater runoff reduction, improved air quality, and beautification of your neighborhood.

Simply go to our Energy-Saving Trees website and use the tool to determine the best location in your yard to plant your free tree to save energy. The online tool also estimates your annual savings resulting from the tree. In exchange for the free trees, you are expected to care for the trees and plant them in the location provided by the online tool. Your free trees will be shipped directly to your house and will be ready for planting. All at no charge, as our gift to you.

Here is the list of trees that are available this year:

  • “Natchez” Crapemyrtle
  • Live Oak
  • Muskogee Crapemyrtle
  • Red Maple
  • Tonto Crapemyrtle
Be sure to follow instructions about planting the right tree in the right place to avoid power lines.
