Get Involved

All our programs work together to provide greater shade, cooler air, cleaner water, citizen engagement and sustainable growth to the neighborhoods where we live and work.

Get Involved

As stewards of DC’s urban forest, Casey Trees has served as a community resource for educational programs and volunteer opportunities since 2001. We pursue our mission to restore, enhance and protect the tree canopy through a variety of programs including tree planting, tree care, inventories, adult and youth education, and conservation easements. While the activities vary, all our programs work together to provide greater shade, cooler air, cleaner water, citizen engagement and sustainable growth to the neighborhoods where we live and work. Our opportunities are seasonal, so if you want to stay in the know, sign up for The Leaflet, our weekly newsletter.
