Free Trees AvailablePublished Wednesday, October 8, 1997 in the Nevada County PicayuneTen free shade trees will be given to each person who joins The National Arbor Day Foundation during October 1997. The free trees are part of the nonprofit foundation's Trees for America campaign. The ten shade trees are sugar maple, red oak, pin oak, green ash, thornless honeylocust, weeping willow, river birch, tuliptree, silver maple, and red maple.

The trees will be shipped postpaid at the right time for planting between November 1 and December 10 with enclosed planting instructions. The six- to 12-inch trees are guaranteed to grow or they will be replaced for free of charge.
