Tree Planting Campaigns

June 28, 2023 by Elizabeth

Tree Planting Campaign GuideLearn how to plan for and plant trees across cities using the right data, partnerships and budgets. Features case studies from across the southern U.S. and compelling arguments for funding urban forests. This guide provides the arguments for analyzing tree canopy coverage locations, tree condition and strategies for a community-wide strategic approach to tree conservation. Even if you — the reader — are an experienced arborist or forester, you may need better or different arguments to move a city council or county board to take action for tree planting or retention. Tree care professionals may not know how to obtain citywide data on tree coverage, while data managers may not understand how to engage field staff in reviewing and applying data to on-the-ground decision making. This guide bridges those gaps so that agencies, departments, tree care groups, tree professionals and elected officials can work better together to get the right data and make more informed decisions for our urban forests.
