The City of Blaine has again been named a Tree City USA community by the Arbor Day Foundation. This marks the 16th consecutive year the city has earned the distinction. The Tree City USA program provides direction, assistance, public attention, and national recognition for community forestry programs in cities like Blaine.

Although Arbor Day is officially recognized in Minnesota on the last Friday in April, the City of Blaine will observe the day at its annual tree sale, which will take place on May 8 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Blaine’s Public Works facility.

To learn more about the available trees, ordering trees, and Arbor Day History, please visit the City of Blaine website.
