Thanks to the support of Morningstar Properties, TreesCharlotte will be ending its event season with a City-wide TreeAdoption. Everyone who lives within the city limits is able to partake in this amazing event. We’ll have a huge mix of species, from small flowering to canopy building to evergreen screening. There’s something for everybody.

• Please allow for at least 45 minutes to receive your trees as everyone is required to go through a planting demonstration.

• At the TreeAdoption, you will be taught how to properly plant and care for your tree(s).  Tree training is mandatory.
• About the trees: The trees are in 3, 5, or 7-gallon containers, measure up to 12 feet tall, and weigh about 10-15 pounds. The mulch weighs 25 pounds/bag.
