SouthPark ZipCode TreeAdoption – 28207, 28209, 28210, 28211
November 20, 2021, 9:00 AM - 11:00 AM
We’re excited to go back to our normal event format, which includes an in-person planting demonstration and tree education, a core mission of TreesCharlotte!
Thanks to the generous support of Ally Financial, TreesCharlotte is excited to provide SouthPark residents with trees! We invite residents living in zip codes 28207, 28209, 28210, and 28211 to come on out and get some trees at TreesCharlotte.
To ensure the event runs smoothly please read the details below carefully:
Here’s what you need to know:
- Registration is required and opens at 10am Tuesday, November 16. (link will be posted above on Nov 16) and closes when we “sell-out” of trees or at 11:59pm Thursday, November 18.
- Each address within zip codes 28207, 28209, 28210, and 28211 can get up to 2 trees. While the registration form does not limit the total number of trees, households requesting more than 2 trees will be notified and removed.
- Proof of residency within 28207, 28209, 28210, and 28211(ie: driver’s license, utility bill, etc) must be shown at the event.
- A valid email address is required to register.
- Please allow for at least 45 minutes to receive your trees as everyone is required to go through a planting demonstration.
- We are continuing to implement staggered pickup times. On the registration form, you will choose a time frame to pick up your trees.
- 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 and 5-gallon containers, measure 5-10 feet tall and weigh about 10-15 pounds. The mulch weighs 25 pounds/bag. Links to the species we are offering are provided below. Please do your homework first to ensure you’re putting the right tree in the right place. Once registered, selections are final and cannot be changed.
- TreesCharlotte will send a follow-up email with planting instructions – including a planting video and watering instructions
