Trees Atlanta will hold its 16th Annual Trees Atlanta Tree Sale at the Freedom Farmers’ Market at The Carter Center, 453 Freedom Parkway, on Oct. 3 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. rain or shine.

Each October, the Trees Atlanta Tree Sale features over 1,500 native and exotic plants – including 200 species of trees, shrubs, native perennials, and tree-friendly vines – for purchase by the public. This year’s Tree Sale will also feature a selection of native trees, shrubs, and perennials that attract wildlife and pollinators such as birds, butterflies, and bees. Fruit and nut trees, too—persimmon, pear, plum, walnut, pecan, and many others.

The Trees Atlanta Tree Sale gives plant lovers a chance to talk with experts and certified arborist about why each tree is unique, so that making the decision on which tree to buy becomes easier. There will also be curated shoppers’ tours that will focus on native, pollinator and shade trees available for purchase on site.

All proceeds benefit Trees Atlanta’s planting and education programs, helping the organization plant approximately 3,000 trees each year and reach over 8,000 children and adults with our education programs all around metro Atlanta.
