Arbor Day Discount

We're celebrating Arbor Day 2024 with a special tree-t for MEC electric customers!

From Friday, April 26 to Sunday, May 5, get 20% off up to two trees at Dussel’s Farm Market & Greenhouses in Cassopolis or Barrett’s Showplace Gardens & Flower Shop in Adrian.

Before you do, read this! Trees and power lines don't mix. We proactively remove trees and brush within 15 feet of either side of our primary power lines, which has been proven to significantly reduce the amount of time our customers spend without power. It also helps our linemen more efficiently identify and repair damage when needed.  

Make sure your trees have enough room to grow by considering the size and shape of the canopy when the tree is mature. See the guide below for more information on how to avoid planting your trees near power lines.

Before you start planting, CALL 8-1-1. They'll mark your primary underground utilities before you dig - critical to avoid potentially cutting utility lines to yourself or your neighbors, which can result in a hefty repair bill of hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars.
