Have you noticed how few trees Michigan street has when driving up and beyond the hill? So have we! That’s why we’re partnering with the Michigan Street Corridor Improvement District to bring more trees to Michigan! We work until all the trees are planted, but whatever time you can give is very much appreciated. Please consider joining us. We have planted hundreds of trees in the community so far and want to continue this important work with you! 

No experience necessary.  Tools and direction will be provided by trained Citizen Foresters and other experienced tree planting volunteers.  Please wear closed-toe shoes.

For more information, or to rsvp please email Urban Forest Project Coordinator, Daria at [email protected]

If you or your organization has an idea for a project related to urban ecosystems or trees please feel free to submit a mini grant application for the Friends of Grand Rapids Parks Urban Forest Project.
