Did you know you can request a tree be planted in your park strip? It’s free, as long as you provide water! It’s a simple way to continue growing Salt Lake City’s urban forest of more than 90,000 trees.
Our urban tree canopy:
- Provides cooling shade and inspiring beauty
- Helps keep our air clean
- Quiets urban noise
- Calms our valley winds
Salt Lake City’s Urban Forestry Division plants trees during the dormant season (November-April) and strives to plant 1,000 trees each year. Since November 2024, 142 trees have been planted in District 6 alone! Request a free tree.
