Ashley Rizan of Port Angeles, left, and her daughter, Zoe Rizan, 6, get assistance from City Shade project volunteer Drea Moore with picking out the perfect English oak tree during Saturday’s tree giveaway in front of Vern Burton Community Center in Port Angeles.
About 250 trees, grown in the City Shade Nursery, were distributed to Port Angeles residents with the goal of having them planted along city rights-of-way to contribute to the community’s forest canopy. Another City Shade tree giveaway is planned for spring 2024.
