Friends of Trees is an organization that brings the community together to plant new trees and take care of those trees to become a valued part of our urban canopy. One way Friends of Trees serves the community is through neighborhood planting events. There are several planned for 2015 all over the Vancouver, WA area. Friends of Trees will provide gloves and tools and their neighborhood volunteers will also provide a potluck lunch for all volunteers after the planting is complete. Please arrive by 8:45 am to enjoy some hot coffee and treats, before promptly starting at 9:00am. Want to plant a tree on your property? Click Here to order a tree.
