Native Tree Giveaway
Fall is here and it’s the perfect time to adopt a tree! Supplied by San Antonio’s Parks and Recreation Department, these 1 gallon FREE native trees need your love and care to grow and join the vibrant canopy which makes San Antonio a beautiful place to live and play.
The benefits of adopting a tree include increased property values, reduced energy consumption, reduced storm water runoff, which in turn helps control flooding, protection of the Edwards Aquifer, cleaner water, and a more resilient, lovely city.
One tree per household and a member of the household must be present. There will be 500 trees available on a first come, first served basis. You do not need to bring an ID or utility bill.
Species available on a first come, first served basis:
Anacacho orchid
bur oak
cedar elm
chikapin oak
desert willow
Eve’s necklace
live oak
Mexican plum
Mexican white oak
Montezuma cypress
pecan
