ALL PLANTING PROGRAMS

Want to add trees to surrounding environment? You’ve come to the right place. There are many different ways to plant trees in D.C. through our programs, and the good news is you don’t have to choose just one!

Apply for a residential planting through Riversmart Homes or Pepco’s Right Tree Right Place.
Apply for a school or community tree planting. These take place in all eight wards every spring and fall.
Plant a tree in honor of someone by making a tree dedication.
Work with our certified arborists on a custom planting, pruning, canopy mapping or landscape design project through our Fee For Service Program.

Please note that street tree requests and issues should be reported to the District’s 311 Service Request Center.
