Mt Clemens, MI - Green Macomb and the Blue Water Conservation District have announced the return of their annual tree and plant sale, an opportunity for the public to purchase young trees, fruit trees, flowering shrubs, wildflower seed and other fruits and vegetables at reasonable prices.
The sale is now open and will run through Friday, April 5.
“Our goal is to increase the tree canopy in Macomb County and the Green Macomb Tree and Plant sale helps us do just that,” said Gerard Santoro, program director for Macomb County Parks and Natural Resources. “We created the sale seven years ago and so far the response from residents has been amazing. It’s a privilege to be able to provide homeowners the affordable means to spruce up their gardens this year, as well.”
Items available for order include arbor vitae, douglas fir, norway spruce, paper birch, redbud, red osier and much more. Prices range from $7 to $55 while supplies last.
“Once again, we are proud to partner with the Blue Water Conservation District in promoting this tree sale,” Santoro said. “When buyers make their purchases, they’re benefitting not just their yards, but their communities, as well. Plant life helps to increase property value, decrease pollution and reduce home energy usage.”
All items purchased can be picked up in person or shipped to your home. There will be two pick-up locations in Macomb County:
- April 22 and 23 - Armada Fairgrounds
- April 25 and 26 - Clinton Township Civic Center
A limited stock of trees and plants will be available for purchase on site.
Since the sale began seven years ago, more than 100,000 trees and plants have been purchased by residents, businesses and communities throughout Macomb County. For more information on the tree and plant sale, visit the Green Macomb website.
