CEDAR KEY’S ARBOR DAY
DO COME, RECEIVE YOUR FREE TREE,
MAKE GREENER OUR CEDAR KEY CANOPY
2025 February 6
2025 February 6
After suffering loss of canopy and understory in the last year and a half, the City of Cedar Key will celebrate a much needed Arbor Day on Saturday February 22, 2024.
Celebrating involves each resident/household planting a tree, given to them by the city, to make our canopy greener, cooler, and more beautiful.
Residents are invited to come to the pavilion at Beach Front Park from 9 am to 12 noon. There they may select their tree in a 3-gallon container, and receive fertilizer and a starter kit, all at no charge.
Approximately one hundred trees will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Species will be varied but should include oaks, cedars, and others.’
The City of Cedar Key is a designated “Tree City USA.” That designation is awarded by the National Arbor Day Foundation. For more information on that program, please visit Tree City USA at arborday.org.
