Mark Your Calendars: TreesMatthews Annual Tree Giveaway
Are you a Matthews resident looking to bring some greenery into your life? Look no further—TreesMatthews is hosting its annual tree giveaway on Saturday, October 25, 2025! From 7:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. (or until supplies run out), residents can visit Matthews United Methodist Church at 801 S Trade Street to adopt two FREE native trees per household.
Planning Ahead: Registration Details and Requirements
To ensure you don’t miss out, pre-registration is open until October 19, 2025. Be aware that while registering can secure your chance to adopt trees, it does not guarantee you will receive them. Proof of residence is required at the site, and if you pre-register, make sure to arrive by 9:30 a.m. to claim your trees, as they will be available for first-come, first-served pick-up afterwards. Each tree also comes with a complimentary bag of mulch—perfect for planting!
Don’t Miss the Expert Guidance!
Not only will you leave with beautiful new trees, but experts will also be available on-site to help you decide which species is best suited for your yard. Learning about planting and caring for your new trees is essential, and everyone receiving a tree will attend a brief class on proper care practices. This event is not just about taking home a tree; it’s about fostering a community of informed gardeners!
A Community Celebration of Nature
This giveaway not only supports individual households but also contributes to the overall beauty and health of Matthews. Trees play a critical role in enhancing our environment, providing shade, improving air quality, and supporting local wildlife. Events like these create a sense of unity among residents, all while embracing the benefits of urban greenery.
