2/4/21 @ 8:40 a.m. - In celebration of Arbor Day, Keep Nassau Beautiful distributed 500 free trees to Nassau County residents.
Keep Nassau Beautiful utilized an on-line educational program and tree species reservation process. Residents were asked to view a video recorded by Rebecca Jordi, former Nassau County Extension Director and certified arborist, to learn about proper planting and maintenance of trees. After viewing the video, residents used an on-line form to reserve their preferred species of one or two trees from those available at the time of their reservation.
Residents were given an option of picking up their trees from one of three locations in Callahan, Yulee and Fernandina. More than 40 volunteers assisted in the three drive-through events, providing more than 180 volunteer hours to the residents of Nassau County.
