Trees given

by Foundation

The National Arbor Day Foundation is giving ten free trees to people who become Foundation members during August 1986. The free trees are part of the Foundation’s effort to promote tree planting throughout America.

A sugar maple, white flowering dogwood, pin oak, white pine, red maple, birch, American redbud, silver maple, red oak, and Colorado blue spruce trees will be given to members joining during August. The six to 12 inch trees will be shipped this fall at the right time for planting between October 15 and December 15. They will be sent postage paid with enclosed planting instructions.

These trees were selected to provide benefits every season of the year: lovely spring flowers, cool summer shade, spectacular autumn colors, and winter berries and nesting sites for songbirds, according to the Foundation.

The National Arbor Day Foundation, a nonprofit organization, is working to improve the quality of life throughout the country by encouraging tree planting. The Foundation will give the 10 free trees to members contributing $10 during August.

To become a member of the Foundation and to receive the free trees, a $10 membership contribution should be sent to Ten Trees, National Arbor Day Foundation, 100 Arbor Avenue, Nebraska City, NE 68410, by August 31.
