County offers free trees at five parks

If you lost a tree during Hurricane Wilma, you'll have a chance to replace it later this month. There would be seven to 10 species of trees, with a variety of fruit and native shade trees. Each household will be limited to two trees, and each transaction will require proof of residency and a signed affidavit stating the tree will be planted in Broward. Where to go: Trees will be available from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekends at the following parks, beginning Jan. 28. C.B. Smith Park, 900 N. Flamingo Road, Pembroke Pines, 954-437-2650 (no trees Jan. 29) Plantation Heritage Park, 1100 S. Fig Tree Lane, Plantation, 954-791-1025 Rev. Samuel Delevoe Park, 2520 NW Sixth St., Fort Lauderdale, 954-791-1036 Topeekeegee-Yugnee Park, 3300 N. Park Road, Hollywood, 954-985-1980 Tradewinds Park, 3600 W.
