The tree giveaways are available to Bentonville residents. Only those residents who live inside the city limits qualify for the tree giveaway. Proof of Bentonville residency is required with a driver's license or a utility bill.

The goal of the giveaway is to increase the city’s overall tree canopy on residential property (commercial property is not eligible for this program), promote a healthier environment, and improve the physical appearance and visual character of the built environment.
The giveaway is made possible by the City’s Tree & Landscape Advisory Committee, Compton Gardens & Arboretum and Walton Family Foundation.

Tree Planting Tips
Right Tree, Right Place. Do not plant trees under or near powerlines. When the tree grows, the City will need to remove it to prevent obstruction or access to the powerline. Check out The Right Tree in the Right Place information from the Arbor Day Foundation.
