Dexter, MO - The Dexter Tree Council will host their annual Tree Sale on Saturday, May 8, 2021 from 8 a.m. - 11 a.m. behind Jean & Company in downtown Dexter.

"We've been having annual sales for about 20 or so years now," commented Tree Board Member Wayne Jean.  "Our trees now are planted here in Dexter, grown and cared for and have wintered here for a couple of years before we sell to the public.  They are also native to this region and can handle our climate and soil."

There will be a variety of trees from Crepe Myrtles, Oak, Maple, Red Buds, Japanese Cherries, (like the ones planted downtown Dexter), Cypress and even some Dogwoods.  Prices will range from around $12 - $20 per tree depending on the type of tree.

"Proceeds from the tree sale will go to beautification projects like planting the trees down Stoddard Street and side streets in downtown Dexter,"
