Posted March 27th 2023

The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, the State Forest Service and the Avalon Environmental Commission are offering home owners an opportunity to bring a little more of Mother Nature to the island while beautifying their properties on Saturday, April 22. That’s when the Environmental Commission will be distributing 500 tree seedlings.

The seedlings, which are native trees to Cape May County, are distributed on a first-come basis and are free of charge to property owners. Distribution will take place at the Avalon Community Hall at 30th Street and Avalon Avenue from 8:30am-noon. The rain date for distribution is Sunday, April 23. So, grab your spade and let’s make Avalon a little greener.
