Looking for the perfect holiday gift for your loved ones? How about a good ‘ole fashioned partridge in a pear tree?

In celebration of the season, the local nonprofit organization TreeFolks is offering a holiday gift special. For a $100 donation, they’ll deliver a 5-gallon, ready-to-plant Kieffer or Bartlett pear tree, complete with an Audubon Society toy partridge, to any household in Hays, Bastrop, or Travis counties. For an additional $50, TreeFolks will even dig the hole and plant the tree for you. The trees will arrive in time for the holidays – and will yield fresh pears for years to come.

Each purchase of a partridge in a pear tree supports TreeFolks’ Urban Orchards program. Urban Orchards engages communities to plant fruit and nut trees in public spaces. Orders must be received before December 12. You can place your order here>>
