In partnership with the City of Cedar Rapids, Trees Forever is hosting a low-cost tree distribution for all Cedar Rapids residents! Property owners may reserve up to five low-cost trees for pick up at the Collins Aerospace parking lot adjacent to F Avenue NE off of Collins Road NE, in Cedar Rapids on Saturday, May 2nd, between 9:00am and 11:00am. Trees must be reserved prior to the pickup date. Quantities are limited for each species.

Thank you for helping us replant our community! This distribution event is part of the ReLeaf Cedar Rapids plan to recover our lost tree canopy in private yards and properties. Want to learn more about ReLeaf CR? Visit our landing page here!

Thank you to our ReLeaf Partners!

Your opportunity to reserve high-quality, low-cost trees has been made possible by our ReLeaf partners, whose support has offset the full price of your tree. We would like to thank our ReLeaf partners for their support of the ReLeaf Cedar Rapids plan which will make a significant difference in building back a stronger, more resilient tree canopy following the devastating 2020 derecho. 

Terms and Conditions

Reserved trees must be picked up Saturday, May 2, between 9:00am and 11:00am during your selected timeslot. Trees not picked up by the 11:00am deadline will be forfeited and redistributed. Tree species are subject to change: If your selected tree is not delivered from the supplier, it may be substituted for another species. Unless communicated prior to pick-up date, refunds for missed orders will not be granted.

By reserving a tree, you agree to plant it at your Cedar Rapids residence within one week of pickup. Please visit the City of Cedar Rapids website here for guidance on city right-of-way planting. You also agree to provide the tree with continued care to the best of your ability. Need guidance? Check out our planting resources here! Always call before you dig, contact Iowa One Call.
