Are you a resident of Charlotte?  Do you need some trees for your yard? Thanks to the generous support of Novant Health, TreesCharlotte is bringing its Regional TreeStore to Camp North End.

• Each Charlotte household is eligible for up to two free trees.
• TreesCharlotte’s mission is to help the City of Charlotte reach their goal of 50% tree canopy by 2050.  We therefore limit our efforts to expand the canopy within Charlotte’s city limits and limit participation to Charlotte residents only (unfortunately, we do not serve Matthews, Mint Hill, Pineville, Huntersville, Davidson, Cornelius, other municipalities outside Charlotte, or Mecklenburg County).
• Proof of Charlotte residency (such as a driver’s license, utility bill, etc.) must be shown at the event in order to participate.
• A valid email address is required to register.
• You will complete and sign a Stewardship Pledge Form (mandatory) and declare your pledge to take care of the tree(s) we provide.
• At the TreeStore, you will be trained on how to properly plant and care for your tree(s).  Tree training is mandatory.
• We cannot guarantee species type or quantities and will not know what will be available until the morning of the event.
• Trees are in 7-gallon containers, range from 6-10′ tall, and will not be reserved or transported.

During the Breathe Free, CLT Tree Store, guests can enjoy lunch at the Kiwanis’ Under the Canopy Chili Cookoff from 11:00-2:00 in the Boileryard at Camp North End. A $5 donation given at the event gets you into this charity event, where teams from throughout the city compete to become the chili champion. A portion of the proceeds will benefit TreesCharlotte educational programming in Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools.  Purchase tickets here.
