In an effort to help Manitowoc residents regain some of the urban canopy which will be lost due to the Emerald Ash Borer’s devastating effects on our city’s Ash Tree population, the City of Manitowoc Parks & Forestry Division will again offer a Christmas Tree Exchange Program.
The Tree for a Tree Program will offer city residents the opportunity to exchange a fresh cut Christmas tree for a young deciduous tree seedling known in forestry as a “whip.”
Whips are ready for planting and are generally described as between three to four feet in height and two to four years of age.
Vouchers will be redeemable from April 15, 2020 through May 15, 2020 at Silver Creek Nurseries located at 1909 Silver Creek Road in Manitowoc.
Participation is restricted to City of Manitowoc residents and is on a “first come, first served” basis as quantities will be limited
