It’s spring and it’s time to spruce up your yard and home. Plant trees and make a difference for our environment and your pocketbook. It’s a simple way to do something to protect our waterways and help our air quality while saving on energy costs.
The Marylanders Plant Trees Program offers instant savings when you purchase a new tree from a participating nursery. The state program from the Maryland Department of Natural Resources offers a $25 coupon to purchase any native tree that costs more than $50. There is no limit on how many coupons you use and you can download it from the Marylanders Plant Trees web site.
For the list of the participating nurseraies where you can use the discount coupon, please visit this link:

If you are not able to plant at tree in your own yard, consider giving the gift of trees with Tree-Mendous Maryland. www.dnr.state.md.us/forests/Treemendous
PLANT and BE COUNTED is a call to all Marylanders and businesses from Governor O’Malley and the Maryland Department of Natural Resources to plant and register trees. The goal is 50,000 trees a year. It’s something every Marylander can do to create a smarter, greener future for our families for generations to come.
