Regina residents can get a free tree Wednesday.
The City of Regina is marking National Tree Day by giving away 1,000 seedlings in Victoria Park between 9 a.m. and noon. Seedlings will be limited to one per person while supplies last.
The seedlings available include Carmine Jewel Cherry, Ben Nevis Black Currant, Japanese Empress Elm and Honey Queen Raspberry. There will be different quantities of each type.
It’s the second seedling giveaway of the year in the city.
“Residents were very excited to take part in the seedling giveaway celebrating our Tree City of the World Designation on Arbour Day earlier this year,” Russell Eirich, the city’s manager of open space services, said in a media release.
“Fall is still a great time to plant trees, and now residents can add to Regina’s urban forest with the opportunity to plant on city property.”
The city recently amended the Forestry Bylaw so that residents can plant trees on city property by applying to the Tree Donation Program. Trees planted through this program become the property of the City of Regina and will be maintained by the city once they’re established.
More information about the Tree Donation Program is available here.
