Keep young trees alive with community care

Newly planted trees are drying out because watering often stops after the ribbon-cutting. Together we can close that gap with simple routines, shared responsibility, and quick alerts when a tree is at risk.

Why it matters

Water within the first 2 years to lock in survival.

    No simple visibility on which trees were watered and when they were last checked.
