On October 5th, the City of Tukwila, in collaboration with the King Conservation District, hosted the 3rd annual Tukwila Tree Giveaway! This year, we gave away 285 trees to 114 Tukwila community members and businesses. Since 2022, the Tukwila Tree Giveaway has distributed 663 trees to Tukwila community members and businesses. The Tukwila Community Development Department purchased trees and King Conservation District staff coordinated the giveaway.
