On May 5 and 6, Saskatchewan residents can visit any one of SaskPower's 29 customer service offices to receive a free Green Ash seedling. Free seedlings will also be available at non-SaskPower locations in Creighton, Esterhazy and Ile-a-la Crosse.
"Every tree that the Greenhouse grows - and that our customers take home and transplant into the natural landscape - helps ensure the ongoing health of our province's environment," said acting SaskPower Shand Greenhouse manager Shelley Heidinger.

Each year, the Greenhouse distributes about 500,000 tree seedlings, which are distributed free of charge to not-for-profit agencies, service clubs, conservation agencies and individual landowners. Aside from having an interest in preserving and enhancing Saskatchewan's natural landscape, there are a few other criteria that must be before an organization can qualify for this program - details at saskpower.com/shandgreenhouse.
