  • Tree Planting and Care Initiative

    Tree Planting & Care - Trees Lexington engaged volunteers to plant 268 trees, mulch 290 trees, and water over 400 young trees in 2024. Trees were installed at public school campuses, parks, affordable housing development as well as a neighborhood green space. Trees Lexington provides assistance in project planning and implementation as well as educational resources on tree care after planting, such as the Tree Stewards training. The Tree Stewards training offers hands-on educational programs and events to engage and train local Tree Stewards on the value and care of trees in Lexington. Tree Stewards are equipped with the knowledge and skills to be leaders in their neighborhoods and community projects enhancing our urban forest.
