Adopt-a-Tree
Smyrna’s urban tree canopy helps filter air pollution, reduces stormwater runoff, provides habitat for wildlife, and enhances the quality of life in our city. Adopt-a-Tree supports these outcomes by rescuing young trees and seedlings and placing them with residents, schools, parks, and other organizations.
Additional Details
- Trees are distributed on a first come, first served basis. Please fill out the interest form below for additional details and to help us track interest.
- Tree recipients are responsible for picking up and planting the tree themselves, although we have provided some resources on proper planting, linked below.
- KSB volunteers rescue trees from properties that are slated for development or that homeowners donate; Georgia Forestry Commision provides some seedlings for community events.
- Because most of these trees are rescues, KSB cannot guarantee the long-term viability of the trees.
- If you would like to donate a healthy tree that you no longer want on your property, email info@keepsmyrnabeautiful.com with the type of a tree and a photo. We accept trees based on their size.
- We sometimes need Adopt-a-tree volunteers for last-minute jobs. If you are comfortable with self-directed opportunities and have your own tools and experience digging up plants to be transplanted, email info@keepsmyrnabeautiful.com for details.
