The giveaway is a partnership between the Niagara Peninsula Conservation Authority (NPCA) and Sassafras Farms.
Grow-your-own pollinator greenhouse kits will be available for purchase in support of the local ecosystem, with City staff on site to facilitate information sessions regarding tree care and sustainability.
This year, residents can look forward to a variety of tree species (while supplies last), including Bur oak, Red maple, Silver maple, White birch, and White spruce.
