What would the upper Northwest be without lots of trees—and of course, people who love them.
Here at Bailey Farm Apartments, we like to blend the indoor with the outdoor. And now, Bothell residents who love nature have another opportunity to contribute to a good cause and beautify the area even more.
This September, the Arbor Day Foundation and Trees for America will team up for its Trees for America program. The program will distribute ten free oak trees to anyone who registers with the Arbor Day Foundation during the month of September.
“Those who plant live oak trees will enjoy shade and splendor for years and years to come,” said John Rosenow, founder and chief executive of the Arbor Day Foundation. “These trees will also add to the proud heritage of Washington's 82 Tree City USA communities. For the last 36 years, Tree City USA has supported effective urban forest management across Washington, and planting these trees will enhance the state’s tree-planting tradition.”
The program ships trees between October 15 and December 10—they come in at 6 to 12 inches, but the foundation guarantees growth, or they’ll replace them. New Arbor Day Foundation members will also receive a copy of The Tree Book, which includes information about tree planting and tree care.
