TreeUtah's Statewide Urban and Community Forestry program's purpose is to build public awareness and understanding of the needs and values of healthy community forests. We offer our services to individuals and communities throughout the State of Utah to help facilitate tree plantings in their cities and towns. In the Salt Lake Metropolitan Area, our MetroGreening initiative helps build partnerships among local communities, government programs and private enterprises to educate, collect data and plant trees.
With the help of volunteers we have planted thousands of trees throughout our State. If you're interested in helping us in our mission to make our neighborhoods greener places, click here!
We need your help to maintain and increase our urban forests. Your membership in TreeUtah will help us to continue to plant, care for and protect your community forests. Become a member today!
