ROCKVILLE, Md. (AP) - For people who lost trees because of Hurricane Irene, Maryland has a program to help residents replace them.
The state is extending a program that encourages residents to plant more native trees with $25 coupons.
The Marylanders Plant Trees initiative started in 2009. The goal was to plant 50,000 native trees in the state by 2010. It was deemed a success and was extended this year with the goal of planting an additional 50,000 trees by the end of 2012.
Under the program the trees must cost at least $50, and they must be on the list of approved trees.
