The City of Stow and the Stow Urban Forestry Commission are pleased to announce the reactivation of the Memorial Tree Planting Program. Planting a tree is a beautiful and lasting way to honor a friend or memorialize a loved one and is a perfect gift for a birthday, graduation, wedding or retirement. In addition to the many benefits a tree provides, a tree is a daily reminder of the cycle of life and brings a lifetime of beauty to the community. The cost of each tree is $200, which includes purchase of the tree, mulch, watering bag, and labor of City employees to plant and maintain the tree. Applicants can also install a small, ground-mounted memorial plaque at their cost. For suitable planting sites and/or to obtain an application, please contact Landscape Arborist Sue Mottl at (330) 689-5121.
