🌳 TREE SWAP & GIVE AWAY! 🌳

Let’s grow a greener Rising Sun together!

The Ohio County Public Library is hosting a Tree Swap & Give Away on Saturday, October 17, 2026!

Have a young tree growing where it shouldn’t? Dig it up and bring it to swap with someone who has a spot waiting for a tree! Or simply come choose a tree for your own yard. 🌱

Trees that make good candidates include:
🍁 Maple
🌳 Oak
🌼 Catalpa
🌷 Tulip Poplar
💚 Pawpaw
🌸 Redbud
🌿 Serviceberry
🌳 River Birch
🌳 Sycamore
🍂 Persimmon
…and others!

A few important tips:
🌱 Smaller trees transplant best. We recommend trees 1–2 inches or less in trunk diameter.
🍂 Dig trees after the leaves have dropped, while the ground is still workable.
🪴 Dig wide rather than deep and keep as much of the root system as possible.
💧 Keep roots moist and protected during transport.
🌳 Replant as soon as possible.

Bring a tree. Take a tree. Share a little shade with your community. ☀️🌳

Let's plant something good together in Rising Sun! 💚

Please leave a comment if you are plan on attending, the types of trees you will have to share, the number of trees, if you are wanting to swap for a specific tree or if you are just willing to share.
