Successful First NeighborWoods Event

By October 7, 2025No Comments

The NeighborWoods team conducted its first Tree Adoption Event of the season on Saturday, October 4th, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the H-E-B located on South Congress and Slaughter Lane. Enthusiastic nature lovers lined up as early as 9 a.m. to get two trees from the following selection:

  • Chinquapin Oak
  • Monterrey Oak
  • Rough Leaf Dogwood
  • Pecan
  • Peach

By the end of the event, all 500 trees the NeighborWoods team brought were adopted. This is an excellent start to the season!

We are eternally grateful to H-E-B for hosting this event at their location.

The NeighborWoods program is a partnership with the City of Austin and Austin Energy.
