Hello Contact Team Representative,
I hope your rainy & cloudy summer is going well. Here are three summer announcements for you!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Free Treegators
If you are an Austin Water customer or Austin Community Tree Recipient stop by Austin Water’s Waller Creek Center located at 625 E. 10th Street to pick up a free Treegator. Treegators are slow release watering bags that evenly deliver water to the roots of young trees without run-off or evaporation. Trees should be 2-3 inches in diameter (about the size of your wrist) with branches at least 25" from the ground. Supplies are limited and available on a first come, first served basis.
Pick up is available (one per Austin Water customer) between 8am and 4:30pm, Monday through Friday, at the 625 E. 10th Street first floor Customer Service office.
