Gulf Shores residents can choose between six tree varieties on Feb. 25

The Gulf Shores and the Beautification Board will host an Arbor Day tree giveaway on Saturday, February 25 from 8:30 a.m. – 10 a.m. at Sims Park Pavilion. Residents of each household that reside within the city limits may select four different trees from the six varieties: Chinese Pistache, PawPaw, Eastern Mayhaw, Dogwood, Flatwoods Plum and Red Maple.
To receive the trees, residents must register at the check-in table with proof of Gulf Shores residency. Residents receive four tickets per qualifying household. The trees are potted in one gallon containers and are ready for planting. A brochure giving specifics on each tree is available to residents. Members of the Gulf Shores Landscape Division will be onsite to answer questions about the trees.
As an additional incentive, drawings will be held at every half hour. Fruit trees will be offered in each drawing and residents who are registered and present will be entered into the drawing.
