The City’s free tree giveaway program, Community Canopy, returns at midnight Sunday, October 4, with contactless registration and delivery, allowing residents in the city limits to safely receive a free tree during the coronavirus pandemic while helping to expand the urban canopy and reducing energy bills. In partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation, the City will provide 250 trees to residents at no cost. “Not only do trees help clean our air and water and reduce the effects of climate change, but they’ve also been proven to help reduce stress and improve mental health,” said Sustainability Program Educator Jeff Vredenburg. “Now more than ever, we’re thrilled to again be partnering with the Arbor Day Foundation to make Sarasota greener, healthier and more beautiful.”
