During the month of February, Friends of Trees wants to share the love by taking 25% off Gift Trees.

For the entire month, use discount code TREELOVE to show your love for the people you care about and for the earth. We’ll plant a tree in your loved one’s honor and send a personalized gift card. Not only will your gift show your loved one how much you care, it will also clean your valentine’s air and water!

All Gift Trees ordered by February 10 will arrive in time for Valentine’s Day.

Friends of Trees’ Gift Trees are planted in the Collins Sanctuary adjacent to Forest Park during one of two annual Gift Tree plantings. All who give or receive Gift Trees for Valentine’s Day this year will be invited to plant their trees at the Gift Tree planting on March 25, 2012.
