The Lake Worth City Tree Board, along with the City of Lake Worth, is proud to sponsor its 8th annual Festival of Trees on Saturday February 16th from 9 am to 4 pm. This is a free family event and will feature live music throughout the day and educational opportunities stressing the environmental benefits of trees and plants. Local nurseries and plant societies will sell a stunning array of plants, native trees and palms, flowering and fruit trees. 20 fruit trees will be given away to Lake Worth residents via drawing names.
Attendees will also have the opportunity to view the colorful nylon banners depicting native leafs and flowers which line the light poles on Dixie and Federal highways. These banners were commissioned by the Lake Worth City Tree Board and handcrafted by renowned American Artist Bill Godfrey.
Informational materials will be available to all and educational opportunities will be provided by the Sierra Club, Arthur R. Marshall Foundation and Energize Lake Worth to name a few.
This is one of Lake Worth’s most popular events. It’s a great opportunity to green up your yard, get good quality plants at a good price, learn more about gardening, and have a good time meeting friends and listening to great live music!
