In the south, the best time to plant trees is in the fall! This is due to our longer warm months and milder winters. When you plant in the fall, this allows time for the root systems to establish before our summer heat comes. Texas Arbor Day is the first Friday every November and is the kick off to put trees in the ground!

 

To celebrate, we are giving away trees to our community! We will be set up at the Chamber along with our Garden Capital of Texas Commitee, giving away free native trees. ​

​

Details:

• We'll be at the Nacogdoches Chamber of Commerce (2516 North St.) in the grass lot behind our trailer -at the back of the building

• The event will run from 11a.m. - 2p.m. or until the trees are gone, on Friday November 6th

• We will not start the giveaway before 11a.m. to allow everyone a fair chance 

• First come, first serve 

• There is a limit of two trees per family 

• Please adhere to the rules for us to continue to allow this event to happen

​

The trees are free, but we will accept donations to be able to continue these free events and further serve our beautiful community.
