Annual Appeal
Help us plant for the future
Your dedication to our cause continues to make a significant impact on our community and our environment.
Some of our joint 2024 successes include:
Expanding Newport’s Urban Forest
We purchased and planted over 200 new trees in Newport and propagated 115 progeny from 14 of our community’s most iconic trees
Raised our Tree Equity score from 77 to 86
Ensuring Newport’s Tree Health
We cared for 215 public trees, including the continued effort to monitor & treat beech leaf disease in our community. Our 2024 volunteer initiatives total over 330 service hours which helped support these very important activities.
Educating Our Community
We delivered tree-focused programming to 571 youth in all of Newport’s public schools and summer programs, as well as providing 24 engaging community programs for over 540 adult learners.
Looking Forward
In 2024 we began a multi-phase transition to a new home in Newport on Coggeshall Avenue. This new facility will elevate our mission of planting and maintaining Newport’s tree canopy, including historic tree preservation and providing education about the importance of trees in our community.
