Does Parks plant trees on private property?
Parks & Recreation does not plant trees on private property. However, Parks’ MillionTreesNYC partner, New York Restoration Project, is working to help property owners plant trees through nursery discounts and tree giveaways. If you have planted a tree recently, whether through NYRP or on your own, please help us reach our goal of one million trees by reporting the planting to MillionTreesNYC. If you are unsure whether a site is located on public or private land, be sure to contact the property manager first before making planting arrangements.
