Just show up between 2 and 5 p.m. at Town Hall on April 25 and go home with a tree sapling and the planting instructions to get you started.
This is the fourth year the Westport Tree Board has given away trees on a first come, first serve basis. The seedlings are donated by Eversource Energy.
On Green Day, Saturday, April 29, the Tree Board will be at the Lillian Wadsworth Arboretum for a second sapling giveaway.
Members will be at the arboretum, 2 Woodside Lane, from noon to 3 p.m. to hand out saplings, direct tours and conduct a free raffle. The lucky winner will receive a wooden bench handmade by member Dick Stein from black locust wood harvested on the property.
“We want Westporters to enjoy the pleasure of planting a young tree and see the work in progress at the new Arboretum,” said Tree Warden Bruce Lindsay.
