Tree Fund

Plant a tree in the parks and establish a legacy for generations to come.

“He that plants trees loves others beside himself.” – Thomas Fuller

Many people choose to support our restorative tree fund in Pittsburgh’s parks. Here are some common reasons people donate to our tree fund:

  • In tribute of someone you respect, love, or admire
  • To celebrate a birth, birthday, or marriage
  • In recognition of a life change, or achievement
  • As a gesture of community service
  • In memory of someone who has passed away

The Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy's Horticulture and Forestry Team works to nurture and protect the green spaces we love.

Whether planting new trees, shrubs, and flowers or investigating new destructive insects and diseases, our gardens and parks require year-round maintenance and the utmost care. Please explore all of the wonderful ways you can improve our trees by making a donation below.
