Every year millions of healthy high-quality plants go unsold and are
destroyed.
They go to the dump,
They get plowed under,
They get burned or buried.
It's a huge waste.
They come from the very same growers that supply many of the most
famous garden catalogs. I know because I'm an avid gardener and
horticultural
photographer. I've taken a lot of the photos you see in many of those
same catalogs.
I also strongly support the sheltered workshop movement.
Hundreds-of-thousands
of workers with disabilities find meaningful jobs in workshops all across
the country.
The ongoing problem is to find work to be done.
We started this web site to help solve both problems. We find unsold
nursery stock and have it packaged by sheltered workshops.
We give away the plants to anyone who will send shipping and processing.
Free Trees and Plants.com is not a nonprofit charity. We do not ask for,
or accept, contributions or offer paid memberships. Except for shipping
and processing,
Free Trees and Plants .com is a self-supporting project.
Distribution of the free plants is on a first reserved, first served
basis.
When you make your reservation, you will get a confirmation. It will show
your
reservation number and what free plants you reserved.
All plants are shipped dormant and bare-root, just like most catalog
stock.
We will send your free plants by standard mail.
Shipping and processing covers the cost of:
digging
washing
inspection
transportation
size sorting
unit grouping
hydro dipping
packaging labor
packaging materials
labeling
addressing
postal sorting
and postage to your door.
Every step is done manually.
Shipping and processing is only $7.95 per unit. Some catalogs appear to
charge
less for shipping and handling. They include part of the cost in the price
of the plants, we can't.
Your plants are FREE. Every plant is as good as, or better than, those
you see in expensive catalogs at high prices. The only difference is
that, unless you want these plants, they may go to waste.
You get free plants. You help stop a huge waste. Workers with disabilities
get meaningful work and a paycheck. Everyone wins.
Happy planting,

P.S. If you aren't satisfied with your free plants we will replace them
without further
cost or send you a refund.

Government Seeks to Employ More People with Disabilities
Government Seeks to Employ More People with Disabilities
On the 20th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, President
Obama July 26, signed an executive order aimed at increasing federal hiring
of persons with disabilities. According to the White House, the executive
order fulfills a pledge by the president to make the federal government a
model employer of people with disabilities.
The executive order establishes mechanisms such as mandatory training for
hiring managers and requires agencies to prepare strategic plans to be
approved by the Office of Personnel Management and the Office of Management
and Budget.
The order also requires OPM to develop model guidelines and assistance for
hiring people with disabilities, report to the president about progress, and
publicize results on a website as a way to promote transparency, the White
House said. Obama held a signing ceremony on the lawn of the White House,
attended by cabinet secretaries, administration officials, and advocates for
the disabled. The president said it was a honor to be with the audience on
the 20th anniversary of "one of the most comprehensive civil rights bills in
the history of this country."
He said it was the goal of his administration to advance the ADA so that not
just the letter of the law, but the spirit of the law, is applied across the
country. Signed under Bush Administration Obama said he spoke with former
President George H.W. Bush, under whose administration the ADA was signed,
just prior to the ceremony. "Today, as we commemorate what the ADA
accomplished, we celebrate who the ADA was all about. It was about the young
girl in Washington state who just wanted to see a movie in her hometown
theater, but was turned away because she had cerebral palsy," Obama said.
Separately, the president issued a proclamation declaring July 26 the
anniversary of the ADA.
The proclamation also stated that the federal government is committed to
leading by example in hiring people with disabilities, with focused efforts
to recruit, retain, and support these public servants. "In partnership with
the many federal agencies and departments with ADA responsibilities, my
administration will uphold strong and meaningful enforcement of the ADA to
eliminate discrimination in employment, housing, public services, and
community accommodations," the proclamation stated. The president also urged
all Americans to visit Disability.gov for comprehensive disability-related
information and resources.
