April is the perfect time to plant a tree, and save the planet.
Bowie (where TwinPanic HQ is located)
is again running it's tree rebate program. $50 or $100 back (depending
on tree cost). Simply buy a tree at *Patuxent Nursery* (only). They have
rebate forms, which they will submit. Once you have planted the tree,
simply send a photo of the planted tree to get your rebate (You'll
receive email instructions on where to send it.)
Also,
the State of Maryland is offering a $25 coupon (payable to the
participating nursery), off the cost of a tree of at least $50. Coupons
at the Nursery.

Trees
must be off the approved list (the Bowie list overlaps with the MD
list, so choose one off the Bowie list). We chose a River Birch (betula nigra)
this year and last. These are good for sun to part shade, and wet,
loamy soil. There are several great trees for shade and small animal
foods. Small trees such as Dogwoods are included.
If you live in unincorporated PG County, you can receive up to a $150 rebate on the purchase of approved trees.
Montgomery County and other Maryland counties also have plant-a-tree
rebates. You can stack the Maryland State coupon on top of these rebates
for a deep discount!
Check with your local township or county to see if they have a storm-water runoff management program that includes tree-planting rebates. In Bowie, for a $145, 15-gallon tree, we paid less than $20! For a $75 smaller tree, you could get it FREE (you might have to pay sales tax.)
