School Tree Planting Program

The Long Island Regional ReLeaf Committee is offering a free program to help plant more trees in schools! This program is to inspire K-12 educators, administrators, and students to strengthen their connections with nature and to better understand the benefits of trees for our communities and the environment.

As part of this program, schools can apply to receive a free tree to be planted in their schoolyard. The members of the Long Island ReLeaf Committee, consisting of urban forestry professionals working in different fields, are excited to support these efforts by hosting a joint Arbor Day Celebration with students, accompanied with an educational component and tree planting.
