WE PLANT.
Always choosing the Right Tree or Shrub for the Right Place
Our expert staff and arborists help residents choose the appropriate tree for their homes, schools, and parks. Trees are important for a healthy city, but so are native and drought-tolerant shrubs for the understory. Learn more about our community planting programs and our lawn conversion program.
Apply for a tree by filling out a Tree Stewardship Application or see if you qualify for a FREE TREE as part of our COOL & GREEN INITIATIVE.
We Grow.
Your Grow-To Source for Goodness.
Our COMMUNITY NURSERY & TRAINING CENTER grows and nurtures thousands of drought-tolerant trees and shrubs - all growing to be planted in the community. We are open to the public 3 days a week, learn more:
WE CARE.
Everything needs a little "Tree, L, C".
Our CERTIFIED ARBORISTS and TREE EXPERTS teach proper planting and care so the community can grow trees for generations.
Every planted tree has a Steward to ensure it is cared for the first 3 years of life. Learn more about watering, pruning, and our services:
WE TEACH.
It's never too early or too late to learn.
