Callery pear tree buyback starts soon

The Missouri Invasive Plant Council, in partnership with Forest ReLeaf of Missouri, Forrest Keeling Nursery and the Missouri Department of Conservation will host a Callery (Bradford) pear “buyback” program in locations around the state on April 22. Homeowners are invited to cut down one or more Callery pear trees and receive one free, non-invasive tree at this event.
