Arbor Day Foundation Offers Free White Pine Trees

Ten free white pine trees will be given to each person who joins The National Arbor Day Foundation during September 2003.

The free trees are part of the nonprofit foundation’s Trees for America campaign.

“The white pines will add year-round beauty to your home and neighborhood,” John Rosenow, the foundation’s president, said. “They are fast-growing landscape trees with soft needles and graceful branching. You can use them as specimen trees or as a privacy screen or windbreak...even as a beautiful sheared hedge.”        The trees will be shipped postpaid at the right time for planting between October 15 and December 10 with enclosed planting instructions. The six- to 12-inch trees are guaranteed to grow or they will be replaced free of charge.

 Members also receive a subscription to Arbor Day, the Foundation’s bimonthly publication, and The Tree Book with information about tree planting and care.

To become a member of the foundation and receive the free trees, send a $10 contribution to Ten Free White Pine Trees, National Arbor Day Foundation, 100 Arbor Avenue, Nebraska City, NE 68410, by September 30.
