We've partnered with the Iowa Department of Natural Resources and the Arbor Day Foundation in Wisconsin to offer landscaping trees to our customers for only $25 per tree. The trees usually retail for $75 and they're available on a first-come, first-served basis.
To participate:
- Purchase trees in advance. Please note, in Iowa there is a limit of two trees per household, and in Wisconsin there is a limit of one tree per household.
- Send the completed order form and payment to the community partner named on the form.
- Pick up your trees on the day of distribution in your community. Dates and times are listed below.
Please note:
- If you pay for a tree but are unable to pick it up on distribution day, the local county conservation organization will consider your paid fees a donation or your tree will be donated to the community.
- IMPORTANT: To purchase a tree, you must be a residential customer of Alliant Energy in Iowa or Wisconsin.
