TREES AVAILABLE
Cranston’s tree planting program is accepting applications from homeowners who would like a tree between the sidewalk and house. Trees are free and planted for free, but the homeowner must agree to water and care for them. Trees will not be planted between the sidewalk and the street because as they grow, they pull up the sidewalk. Applications are available by calling 764-5885 or emailing ritree@ritree.org.
See you at the market.
