DOWAGIAC — Dowagiac residents can add some green to their properties without losing any green from their wallets this spring.

The city is celebrating Arbor Day by making Colorado Blue Spruce trees available to residents to plant in their yards. On Friday, April 25 (Arbor Day), trees can be picked up at City Hall starting at 8:30 AM. There are 50 trees available on a first-come, first-served basis. The trees are ready-to-plant and bare root.

One tree per Dowagiac address is available, and proof of residency is required.
