H-E-B Tech Ridge | 500 W Canyon Ridge Dr, Austin, TX 78753
Adopt & Plant a FREE Tree!
TreeFolks’ NeighborWoods Program, in partnership with the City of Austin and Austin Energy, provides
5,000 free 5-gallon trees
for Austinites to adopt starting in October and continuing through March.
Pick Up Your Tree at a Tree Adoption Event!
All of our adoption events are open to the public and no registration is needed — just show up during the event time! Tree adoption events are the fastest way to get a tree. Tree availability and selection is first-come, first-served. The NeighborWoods free tree program is a partnership with the City of Austin and Austin Energy.
Who Qualifies?
- Trees are available to community members, small businesses, and community spaces who are either located in the City of Austin’s Full Purpose Jurisdiction, Austin Energy electricity customers, or both!
- Since tree care is a long-term commitment, tree adopters must commit to nurturing the tree, especially through regular watering for at least the first two years of establishment.
- Recipients must have enough space for the tree to grow and flourish. We follow the “Right Tree, Right Place” principle.
- If you would like trees to plant in common public areas, such as schools, churches, apartment complexes, community gardens, and small businesses, please submit a Community Spaces application.
