Yew tree up for grabs

Hi all, 68 Pontiac is undergoing some major work in the next few weeks, and there is a small Yew tree in the front yard that we have not had time to transplant. If anyone would like to take it, please help yourself in digging it out, today or tomorrow would be good days to do so. We are keeping the maple tree though.

Thanks! Erin
