What is Tree City USA?

Tree City USA recognition from The National Arbor Day Foundation is a symbol of how important our community forest is to residents. Communities receive Tree City USA designation upon recommendation by state foresters.

Tree City USA is a recognized standard of an effective community forestry program. The basis of such programs is sound urban forestry management, including tree board organization and a tree care ordinance.
