The City of Oklahoma City, in partnership with the Tree Bank Foundation, is making 1,000 free trees available to citizens as part of the “Great OKC Tree Give-Away.” This is the sixth time the Tree Bank and the City have teamed up for the effort, and to date, over 5,000 free trees have been distributed to Oklahoma City citizens. Funding for the program is provided through a grant from the Houston-based Apache Foundation.
Individuals who want a free tree must pre-register for one. Registration begins Tuesday, October 9 at 9 a.m. There are two ways to register:
1. Citizens may go online to www.okc.gov/releaf and click on the registration link.
2. Citizens without computer or Internet access may call (405) 604-0041.
Only citizens living inside the corporate limits of Oklahoma City are eligible to receive a free tree. This includes residents who are served by Oklahoma City police and/or fire. Having an Oklahoma City utilities bill is not a sole qualifier. The program is open to private residences only, and there is a limit of one tree per household.
