A (Free) Tree Grows in Belmont

The Belmont Plant-A-Tree Program is making 25 trees available to Belmont residents in an effort to maintain the urban forest and improve the environment.

The trees will be offered to the first 25 respondents only and priority will go to the residents who have not previously received a tree. Trees must be planted in the City of Belmont and maintained by the resident.

Applications are also available at the Parks and Recreation Department, 30 Twin Pines Lane. The deadline to for applications is Monday, Oct. 31 and there is a limit of one tree per household. For more information, call 595-7441.
