These trees are 3-4 foot "whips" with bare roots and MUST be

with a planting spade and put the tree
in the slot.
Rubber or waterproof boots advised. Planting will start at 10 a.m. All SOCM members and all other tree lovers
invited. For more information contact Brian Paddock at 931-268-2938 or bpaddock@twlakes.net.
