Audubon Society Spruce Tree Seedling Giveaway starting May 25th. Be sure to click the link for details on the giveaway locations and dates.
In an attempt to offset the bird habitat and landscaping losses due to the Spruce Bark Beetle infestation in Anchorage, the Anchorage Audubon Society has purchased 10,000 White Spruce seedlings which we will GIVE AWAY FOR FREE beginning on May 25. We will need a LOT of help from volunteers in order to distribute these trees in the shortest possible window.

It will take years for these seedlings to provide the lush spruce habitat we have lost in Anchorage, but there’s an old saying in the forestry business: “The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is Now.”
Mr. Whitekeys
