The annual Mecklenburg County Tree Seedling and Rain Barrel Sale is just around the corner! If you haven’t already ordered your rain barrel, make sure you do it by Monday, January 14th. And when you are there picking up your Rain Barrel on the 26th, you can pick up a lot of great bushes and trees which are native to the Piedmont area of the Carolinas. This sale is an hugely popular event and even though the doors don’t open until 9am, lines start forming around 8am. There will be dogwoods, red maples, oaks, beauty berry, long leaf pine, button bushes and more on sale for $1-$5. For a complete list and more information, click here. Doors will remain open while supplies last, or noon, whichever comes first. If you miss out on the opportunity to get a rain barrel on the 26th, there will be other opportunities throughout 2008.
