Tree seedlings from the Kentucky Division of Forestry are scheduled to be available starting Thursday, Jan. 25 and will be available while supplies last.
Each homeowner may receive up to four seedlings total.

Adair County Extension Master Gardeners will be on hand distributing seedlings and answering any questions you may have on location selection, planting, and care for seedlings.
