Celebrate Oregon Arbor Month
Each year thousands of Oregonians all over the state celebrate trees and their benefits by planning, planting and caring for trees. If all you need is a little suppport to do the same in your community, we are here to help! In 2025, we helped Cottage Grove, Philomath, Reedsport, Sisters and Tangent with grants to help them boost their Arbor Month activities. The grants supported buying and establishing trees for public spaces, tree-related educational materials, and volunteer support supplies.
Oregon is a “tree” state. We have diverse forests and beautiful trees. In fact, Oregon has some of the most productive forests and is home to some of the largest trees in the world. We place a high value on the importance that trees play in our quality of life by providing habitat for wildlife, products that we all use, clean air and water and all of the other wonderful things that trees do. For that reason, Oregonians celebrate April as Oregon Arbor Month. We invite you to celebrate the importance of trees in your community by applying for an Oregon Arbor Month grant. Grants up to $1,250 are available. Applications are due at the end of the year and awarded the following March. So think how we might boost your community's tree-related activities next April.
