Help grow Tempe's urban forest

Individuals, families, groups and organizations are invited to support the City of Tempe’s urban forest by donating a live tree.

Through the Living Tree Donation Program, a 24” box tree will be planted in one of the City of Tempe’s 48 neighborhood parks. Donors are welcome to select the park*.
*Parks under renovation may not be available.

To commemorate the donation, donors will be asked to provide a personalized inscription for a brass leaf to be placed on one of our three donor recognition trees:
Parks & Recreation, 3500 S. Rural Rd., Suite 201
Escalante Community Center, 2150 E. Orange St.
Westside Community Center, 715 W. 5th St.
