Individual citizens can grow the urban forest in Dallas into a healthy, productive resource capable of providing benefits for future generations and improving our quality of life. There are few acts that can make a bigger difference than planting and caring for trees. Trees contribute to cleaner air, cleaner water, cooler temperatures, and many more benefits.
Every person can make a difference.
