Almost two years have passed since the MillionTreesNYC campaign has started,
and we are well on our way to planting one million trees by 2017. With the help
of volunteers we have already planted over 250,000 trees at schools,
streets, and parks throughout the City. This fall we are looking to plant trees
in exciting new locations- and we have our sights set on your
backyard!
The New York Restoration Project is partnering with several community
organizations to encourage New Yorker’s to plant trees in their private yards,
gardens and other community spaces. Through the generous sponsorship of
Bloomberg Philanthropies and David Rockefeller, FREE trees will be made
available for adoption at select locations throughout the City.
