We’re teaming up with Enterprise Rent-a-Car and the Arbor Day Foundation to give away 1,400+ FREE native trees! Each household may take home up to two trees—first come, first served.
Join us at Legion Stadium (2149 Carolina Beach Rd) to choose from a climate-ready lineup of native species, including:
- Southern live oak (Quercus virginiana)
- Swamp chestnut oak (Quercus michauxii)
- Southern red oak (Quercus falcata)
- Tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera)
- Longleaf pine (Pinus palustris)
- American sycamore (Platanus occidentalis)
- Bald cypress (Taxodium distichum)
- Red maple (Acer rubrum)
- Sweetbay magnolia (Magnolia virginiana)
- Blackgum (Nyssa sylvatica)
- Persimmon (Diospyros virginiana)
- Eastern redbud (Cercis canadensis)
- American hornbeam (Carpinus caroliniana)
- Pawpaw (Asimina triloba)
You can learn more about the trees on our website: acftrees.org/events.
Need help picking the right tree for your yard? No worries! Certified arborists and Tree Stewards will be on hand to offer expert guidance, planting tips, and long-term care advice.
This is part of our mission to grow a healthier, more resilient tree canopy across the Lower Cape Fear—especially in fast-developing areas like New Hanover County that are losing trees at an alarming rate.
Trees clean our air, cool our streets, calm our stress, and connect our communities. Come plant a better future with us—literally!
🌳 Our tree giveaways are—and will always be—free and open to all. But if you're able, we invite you to make a suggested donation of $10 per tree to support our operations, community plantings, and tree advocacy across the Cape Fear region. Your gift helps us keep growing!
