We’re partnering with Greening the West to provide a canopy of trees for schools within our service area.
Eligible schools will be given up to 50 trees in tube stock, along with stakes and guards to assist with tree protection until the tree can grow independently.
Trees for Schools is open to primary and secondary schools within the GWW service area. To be eligible, your school must:
have a planting site prepared before delivery
water trees regularly during establishment and during times of extreme heat
maintain the area around the planting site to assist with tree growth.
Expression of Interest in the 2023 program have closed.
