ALBION – The Albion Betterment Committee, which has planted numerous dogwood trees in Albion, wants to see more trees planted in the village.

The ABC will be selling trees today at cost from 4 to 6 p.m. at Bullard Park. There will be 10 white oaks at $4.90 each and 10 white dogwoods for $7.50 each. The white oaks are about 4 to 5 feet high while the dogwoods are 3 feet high.

Gary Kent, an ABC board member, said the white oaks are good wildlife trees. They are slow growing and very hard. The dogwoods are flowering trees in the spring.
