Did you know there is a name for the collection of all the trees in your community? The trees located in parks, along streets and sidewalks, in your yards, and on the properties of local businesses, places of worship, schools, and more are called the urban forest.
The City of Los Angeles and the County are partnering to create Urban Forest Management Plans that will set the vision for how we can protect and maintain trees and identify necessary resources, policies, and programs to grow our urban forest, and to keep it healthy for future Generations.
Share your vision for the Urban Forest!
