TreesLouisville

TreesLouisville is a 501c(3) dedicated to a more livable and healthy community for future generations through a robust tree canopy throughout Louisville. TreesLouisville is raising the public awareness of our tree canopy deficit and planting trees today in places of greatest need.

TreesLouisville has initiated a groundbreaking partnership with Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS) virtually creating mini arboreta across the Louisville community. Beginning in the 2015 fall planting season, TreesLouisville has helped fund and manage the planting of hundreds of trees of a diverse selection of species the majority of which will be of significant landscape size, on 10 JCPS campuses.

With a goal of reaching 10-15 new school campuses annually and with on-going maintenance, this project fits well into TreesLouisville’s mission of having an immediate impact in areas of greatest need that results in life long benefits for future generations.
