No, it wasn’t jolly Ol’ Saint Nick delivering goodies for under the tree: It was workers from Davey Trees delivering and installing trees for free to all the good people in Arlington who requested them.
Arlingtonians for a Clean Environment administer the increasingly popular Tree Canopy Fund program, which provides free trees and installation to participating homeowners. The cost of the program is paid for by land developers. TCF is an effort to increase Arlington’s tree canopy, which has dwindled sharply over the past 30 years.
