SAVE THE WORLD (AND IT’S FREE)

One of the simplest actions we can take to improve our Earth is to plant trees. Luckily, Montgomery County has made this easy, free, and work free on our part. The county has two programs to plant free trees on your property. They are separate programs that seek to beautify our neighborhoods, reduce energy costs by providing shade, and soak up carbon dioxide from our environment. 

The county will plant street trees that are maintained by the county. The county monitors the trees and if they do not survive the planting, they are replaced at no cost or effort from you. You can request one at the following link:

If you have backyard space for a larger shade tree, you can also request a tree at: https://treemontgomery.org/request-a-tree/.
