There is much to know about taking care of trees and ensuring they are properly planted for the community to enjoy.

Tree benefits

Trees provide many benefits to our community, including:

• Supplying the oxygen in the air we need to breathe
• Keeping our air supply fresh by absorbing carbon dioxide
• Lowering air temperature by evaporating water in their leaves
• Providing shade and shelter, reducing yearly heating and cooling costs by 2.1 billion dollars
• Stabilizing the soil and preventing erosion
• Providing food and shelter for wildlife
