Many of us in Morrison, IL, have lost trees due to storms and disease. Morrison Garden Club would like to help encourage residents to replace some of those trees. The club is sponsoring a tree planting reimbursement program this fall. We will reimburse “up to $50” for one tree that you plant this fall in your yard. This financial incentive is for the first 40 participants that reside in Morrison.
We have written guidelines along with a list of trees suggested for our area. The program begins Tuesday, August 15, 2023, and runs through November 1–unless we reach our 40 reimbursements before then.
If you have any questions please text Kelly West at 815-499-4885. She will call you and answer them.
If you wish to print a copy of the packet which contains the guidelines, tree list, the reimbursement form, etc., email Nancy at nancycstevens@gmail.com. Printed copies of the packet are available by request only and can be mailed to you.
We have a brochure available that contains some great suggestions on tree planting. Copies of the “Under the Canopy” brochure will be available at Odell Public Library until our supply runs out.
