Tree Sale

The City of Merriam is offering a tree sale! To support our diverse tree canopy, choose from a variety of trees, including birch, oaks, magnolia, and more.

Trees clean the air, absorb stormwater, and improve community health. Planting more trees helps bring down global temperatures and reduces our human impact on climate change.

Trees can also help you save energy by shading your home, and they even boost your home's value! Merriam residents receive a $15 discount if you order one tree and $30 if you buy two or more trees. In 2022, tree orders opened July 1 and were due by August 19. The tree sale is open to Merriam residents only.
