Adopt a Tree Program

Each month, from now until October, Miami-Dade County’s Adopt-a-Tree program allows single-family home and duplex or triplex owners to claim two free trees from various sites around town.
This month, choose from vera wood, white geiger, jackfruit, and green buttonwood. Or hold out for July’s selections, which include longan, pigeon plum, Queensland crepe, and the ever popular mango. Avocado, red mulberry, and wild tamarind are a few that’ll be available later in the year.
The next Adopt-a-Tree event takes place Saturday, 9 a.m.-noon, at Cutler Ridge Park, 10100 Southwest 200 Street (305-468-5900 or miamidade.gov/derm/adoptatree).
