Zappone Subaru Drives Change In Our Community During The 16th Share The Love Event! | Norwich, NY

At Zappone Subaru Norwich, giving back to the community goes beyond the road. As part of the Subaru Loves the Earth initiative, we’re proud to partner with the Arbor Day Foundation to bring something meaningful, and lasting to our local community. Free Trees for Our Community We’re offering local residents the opportunity to reserve a tree, free of charge. These trees are carefully selected to thrive in our region, helping ensure long-term growth and environmental impact right here in our neighborhoods. Planting a tree may seem like a small act, but the benefits are powerful: Helps cool neighborhoods and reduce heat Improves air and water quality Creates natural habitats for wildlife Enhances the beauty of your property and community Why This Matters Trees play a critical role in maintaining a healthy environment. By planting even one tree, you’re contributing to cleaner air, stronger ecosystems, and a more sustainable future for generations to come. Through our partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation, an organization that has planted over 500 million trees since 1972, we’re helping extend that impact right here in Norwich. Reserve Your Tree Today Supplies are limited, and trees will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. We encourage you to reserve yours today and be part of something bigger. Together, we can grow a greener, healthier community, one tree at a time. Visit Zappone Subaru Norwich to learn more and reserve your tree here.

On Saturday, April 12th, 2025, Zappone Subaru Norwich proudly participated in the Subaru Loves the Earth® initiative by partnering with the Arbor Day Foundation to host a free tree giveaway for our local community in Norwich, NY. As part of Subaru’s nationwide commitment to sustainability and environmental stewardship, this event gave residents the chance to bring home a living contribution to our planet’s health. From Red Maple to Bald Cypress, Black Gum Tree and Silver Fir, each species was carefully selected to thrive in our local environment and support long-term ecological health. We’re excited to share that over 100 trees were distributed right here in the Norwich area—each one a powerful step toward building cleaner, greener neighborhoods. Why Planting a Tree Matters Planting a tree may seem like a small act, but the impact it creates is anything but small. With every tree that took root: 400 people will be provided with enough oxygen for a full day 156 people will benefit from one day's worth of clean water 12,820 gallons of stormwater runoff will be avoided over time That’s not just good for the Earth—it’s a direct investment in the health and well-being of our neighbors, families, and future generations. A Community-Wide Impact Norwich currently has a 26% tree canopy, and initiatives like this help expand that coverage—cooling streets by up to 10°F during hot summers, improving mental health by reducing stress and anxiety, and even supporting critical water sources that supply over 180 million Americans. These 100 trees, distributed across 2,293 square miles, will provide lasting benefits for decades to come. They’ll support native wildlife, attract pollinators, and beautify our community—one yard, park, and sidewalk at a time. Why Trees, and Why Now? 56% of Americans have to drive to find green space 86% agree we need more trees, but only 19% have planted one in the past year 77% of consumers say they’re more likely to support businesses that plant trees That’s why Subaru and its retailers—like Zappone Subaru Norwich—are stepping up. By joining forces with the Arbor Day Foundation, Subaru and its retail network helped distribute 100,000 trees nationwide this spring. This powerful collaboration shows how businesses and communities can work together to build a healthier future for everyone.
