Street trees cool houses and streets, thereby reducing energy needs and saving the residents money. Trees also beautify the neighborhood and encourage a healthy, outdoor lifestyle. Best of all, trees make people happy!
The City’s grant-funded program can help you help your neighborhood. They can provide the trees, labor and materials for free. The only thing they need to have is permission from a resident or business to plant and a promise to water the new street trees.
Interested residents can sign up for a free street tree online at: https://www.lacitysan.org/freetree
Get Free Trees for Your Yard
Did you know that the City has a program that allows you to get up to 7 shade trees for FREE delivered right to your door!? These trees are not street trees. They can be planted anywhere on your property except the parkway and are yours to maintain and look after. Trees have innumerable benefits from lower energy costs to improved health and increased home values.
