​Tree replacement plantings are required by City Code for new development, but what else do we do?  

Dallas Reforestation Program - Development Services

Trees requested through this program must be planted on public property which includes City of Dallas parks, recreation centers, approved medians and parkways. Trees are purchased and delivered through the Article X Reforestation Fund.

Branching Out Dallas - Park and Recreation  See photos of this year's plantings below!

Park and Recreation chooses a minimum of twelve parks per year to plant new trees. Trees are purchased and delivered through the Article X Reforestation Fund.

Branch Out Dallas - Water Utilities

This program offers a free tree , while supplies last, to Dallas residents to plant in their yard.  Giving away trees is an effort to filter and decrease stormwater runoff, improve air quality and lower temperatures on private property. (Download the tri-fold brochure in English or Spanish)

In addition, Dallas Water Utilities plants trees in the Great Trinity Forest and floodway management areas, while Public Works adds trees to empty medians every year.
