Education and Volunteer Programs

As citizens of Boise, we all share a common interest in the welfare of the trees that grace our great city. The stewardship of this rich community resource is a privilege that we can all share in through a series of volunteer and education opportunities offered by Community Forestry.

Arbor Day

Each year Boise, the "City of Trees," celebrates Arbor Day by planting a tree at a Boise elementary school. Citizens of Boise can participate by helping with the planting. Learn more about the origins of Arbor Day.
