The City of Nampa Parks and Forestry Division is looking for residents who are willing to donate a 40 foot or taller pine or spruce tree to be the Downtown Nampa Christmas tree for 2021. The tree must be located within or very close to the Nampa city limits with easy access to the main city roads. The tree must also be accessible from a roadway and without any overhead utility obstructions.
The tree will be removed and transported to the Downtown Nampa area and decorated for the upcoming holiday season. Mayor Debbie Kling will officially light the city Christmas tree during the annual lighting celebration on Saturday, November 27, 2021 at 5:30 p.m. A brief history of the tree will also be presented.
This service is completely free of charge and includes the complete removal of the tree as well as the stump ground down to grade thanks to donated services from Qualitree, a family-owned and operated business in Nampa.
Please keep in mind the following guidelines when donating a tree:
- The tree should be at least 40’ or taller tree
- The tree must be an evergreen, pine or spruce tree
- The tree must be close to a main city road for easy access for removal and transportation. No backyard trees please.
