Tree Dedications

Our Tree Dedication program offers you a special and lasting way to celebrate and honor the people, pets and events that have touched and shaped your life.

Tree Dedications can be incorporated into a Community Tree Planting site and at a location of your choosing. All Tree Dedications are included on an interactive map and the designated recipient receives a formal acknowledgment and commemorative certificate if requested. We do not physically tag trees or install permanent markers.

Public Tree Dedication

Each spring and fall, we plant approximately upwards of 700 trees across the D.C. through our Community Tree Planting Program. Most planting sites can accommodate personal Tree Dedications.

As the sponsor, you may select the tree species to plant from a list of trees intended for the location and assist with its planting with the exception of those at schools. Your participation in the planting is optional.

$250 per tree

Private Tree Dedication

You may also request a Tree Dedication be planted at a location special to you or the honoree such as your home or place of worship. If the desired location is on public property, we will determine if permission can be secured, and if it cannot, recommend alternative locations.

As with the Public Tree Dedications, you have the option of participating in the planting or requesting that we install the tree on your behalf.

$400 per tree
