Forestry

Through a partnership with the Arbor Day Foundation's Community Canopy program, 1,000 trees will be provided to residents of Fort Collins for $25 each. These trees will help homeowners in our community lower energy costs, filter air and water, reduce stormwater runoff, slow climate change, and green our neighborhoods.
