WATERVILLE – Waterville Public Library is celebrating Earth Day this spring by participating in the 13th annual Neighborhood Forest free tree program.
The program’s aim is to provide free trees to kids every Earth Day.
To get a free tree, parents must fill out the online form by Monday, Feb. 28, by clicking here.
The seedlings, which are 6-12 inches, can be picked up April 22 to 30 (Earth Week), at the library. Planting instructions and species information will be emailed a few days before the trees arrive.
Neighborhood Forest has planted more than 50,000 trees through the hands of children and parents across North America. Library officials said they are excited about participating in “this wonderful program that teaches kids stewardship through the magic and wonder of planting and watching trees grow.”
