Jamestown Tree Nursery Residential Tree Program

Through its Tree Nursery, Jamestown has a tree-planting program designed to provide homeowners with quality street trees, professionally planted, at an attractive price. Trees will be planted within the Town’s right of way, usually about ten feet off the shoulder of the road, if space permits, in the fall. You must agree to water and care for the tree. The funding for this program comes from grants and varies from year to year. We can not predict what funding, if any, will be available. The total cost to participating homeowners is $100. per tree. Each homeowner may apply for one tree.  If interested, please complete and mail this form to the Tree Warden, address below.
