Friends of the Parks and Trails of St. Paul and Ramsey County is delighted to offer thirteen fine selections of trees, shrubs, roses, and vines. For the first time ever, we've got a columnar birch, a tree-form hydrangea, and a tasty red currant so you can REALLY eat locally-from your own yard!
Order for yourself, give a living gift to someone else, or donate to a park. Over twenty cities in the metropolitan area accept donations through our tree sale. With the devastating effects of emerald ash borer taking a toll on our urban forest, your donation is incredibly important to help municipalities replace dead and dying ash trees.
Friends of the Parks and Trails of St. Paul and Ramsey County is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization that has been promoting and protecting parks, trails, and open space for 32 years.
Donations to parks are fully tax-deductible. Order deadline is April 21. Pickup is May 6, 9:00am to 1:00pm in either Maplewood or St. Paul. You choose the location when placing your order.
Orders can be placed and donations to parks can be made online at http://friendsoftheparks.org/annual-tree-sale/ |
