Here are the requirements:

	Plant your Liberty Tree in a public place approved by ERI.
	Install a permanent fence around the tree, such as wrought iron or split rail, and a bench beside it, or a bench that surrounds the tree in place of a fence
	Install the free plaque provided by ERI on a permanent marker, such a flat-based stone.
	Commemorate the tree with a ceremony and arrange for continuing care for the elm. Hold an annual elm celebration of the Liberty Tree Memorial and local elm restoration.
	The town may hold an elm auction of 10 American Liberty Elms as the town's commitment to continuing restoration of elms.

The Elm Auction brings a quantity of site-ready trees, ten foot tall, into the community all at once. Each tree comes with a dedication plaque to honor a person of the donor's choice.
