Ask an arborist about the trees in your yard or pick up a native sapling while supplies last. Don’t miss the chance to register to win a free compost bin, rain barrel, or native plant gardening kit while we celebrate Cary’s 40th year as a Tree City USA community.

The 2023 Arbor Day celebration will be held in conjunction with the My Tree, Our Tree native tree giveaway program. This program allows registered Cary citizens to pick up one free native tree per household to plant in their yard and add to the community’s tree canopy. Learn more and register.
