About Us
Neighborhood Based / Volunteer Driven
The Arden Park Tree Program is a grass roots
effort of local residents to preserve the quality of
life in our older neighborhoods.
Though the program is run by a Steering Committee is
made up of neighborhood volunteers who provide fliering,
logistic and volunteer coordination for their neighborhoods.
However, the success of the program on your block and in
your neighborhood depends on residents getting involved:
passing out fliers to encouraging their neighbors to sign up
for a free tree, and then helping them both plant and care
for those trees.
Our steering committee meets and our meetings are open
to anyone. Click here If you want to attend, want more
information or want to add new items to the agenda.
