You will need to come into the Louisville Nature Center, 3745 Illinois Avenue, prior to Wednesday, November 8, to sign and show proof of your Jefferson County residency. They will also need to know what Metro Council District you live in. MSD will be delivering the trees to your home November 14-16.
