Rooted in Community Tree Sale#

Help grow Fort Collins' urban forest by purchasing a new tree for your home! Through the Rooted in Community Tree Sale (formerly known as the Community Canopy Program), Fort Collins residents are invited to purchase discounted locally grown trees to plant on their property.
1,000 trees will be available to Fort Collins residents for $25 each starting Monday, August 11 at 8 a.m. These trees will help homeowners lower energy costs, filter air and water, reduce stormwater runoff and slow climate change.

How it Works
- Beginning on August 11 at 8 a.m., trees will be available for purchase through WebTrac. A direct link to the sale will be shared on this website.
