One of the most common questions received by the Urban Forestry Department relates to when the next opportunity for free trees will arise. While we promote tree programs through press releases and social media, residents do have to be on the lookout for this information when it is released.

In an effort to make it easier for Edmond residents who are interested in these programs to find out about them as soon as they are announced, Urban Forestry recently created the “Tree Opportunities” email list. Similar to the subscription list for Edmond Tree Mail, people may subscribe through the City’s web site and receive email notifications whenever an opportunity to receive a tree becomes available. Only information about upcoming tree distributions, tree planting programs, and other programs that can result in receiving trees will be sent out through this list.
