(Helen H. Richardson, The Denver Post) Denver Digs Trees It may seem a bit early to be thinking about spring, but now’s the time to apply for The Park People‘s tree distribution program, Denver Digs Trees. The annual program adds lots of green to city blocks by offering free and low-cost medium and large shade trees. All Denver residents are eligible to participate, regardless of where they live in the city. The cost is $35 per tree — $10 if you live in one of the 28 targeted neighborhoods. Participants will rake in the savings, as the trees normally sell for $150. For 2021, only yard trees will be available; no street trees will be offered. (Digger crews will still be available for planting assistance.) Applications will be accepted online starting Feb. 1 with a deadline of March 1. Apply early and get your choice of tree variety specially selected for Colorado’s climate. If you have questions about the program, call 303-722-6262.
