πŸ”Š Listen Β· narrated by Aiden

Applications for Bellevue's annual Tree Giveaway are now open, with 700 free trees available to residents and community organizations. The city will distribute trees on Oct. 24 at Bannerwood Sports Park, with applications due by Aug. 17 or until trees are claimed. The program, now in its fifth year, partners with 300 Trees and Amazon to provide tree care education to over 3,900 recipients since 2021. Residents can select up to two trees while organizations may receive up to 20. The city notes urban tree canopy helps mitigate flooding, improve air quality, and reduce neighborhood temperatures.
