The Rice County Master Gardeners will be holding their annual Arbor Day Tree & Shrub giveaway Friday, April 29, 2022, at the Rice County Fairgrounds in Faribault.

The Arbor Day Tree and Shrub giveaway will be a drive-through past the open shed area so follow the signs! If I remember correctly it was canceled in 2020 because of the pandemic and last year the drive-through format like this year was implemented.

The Rice County Master Gardeners will be giving away bare root stock from 3:30 to 5:30 or until they run out of trees and shrubs. So, for the best selection get there early.

Species available at the 2022 Rice County Arbor Day Tree & Shrub Giveaway in Faribault include:
