Spring is here and now is the time to get those trees you’ve always wanted planted in your yard.
What? You don’t have any trees to plant? No problem. The annual Arbor Day Free Tree Giveaway is set for Saturday, April 5 at 9 a.m. at Smitty’s Ace Hardware parking lot. A variety of trees will be given away, including maple varieties, green ash, ponderosa pine and birch.
The event will last until all the trees are given away. The tree giveaway is sponsored by the Hermiston Rotary Club and the Hermiston Parks and Recreation Department. For more information, call the parks department at 541-667-5018.
