Our first tree planting of 2018! Louisville Grows plans to plant hundreds of trees in Portland to “treecipients”- residents in the neighborhood looking to make an impact to the tree canopy- to do this we need your help! Volunteers are what make these plantings possible; from registration, to meal helpers, and (of course) planting the trees! To get involved contact [email protected]

Louisville Grows works with community partners and neighborhood groups to plant trees with residents and businesses in our community. The goal of training Citizen Foresters is to empower people who care about their neighborhood, with the tools and knowledge to make a meaningful impact by planting and ensuring the long-term viability of trees. Citizen Foresters, our trained volunteers who lead urban reforestation efforts, are an integral part of ensuring we can effectively increase the tree canopy! Since 2013, Louisville Grows has partnered with the Portland, Germantown, Shawnee, Schnitzelburg, Russell, Shelby Park, Beechmont, and California neighborhoods for tree plantings.
