Our next Beat the Heat educational events will be held on Saturday, September 12th and January 16th. Stay tuned for information!
At these events, we provide light refreshments and opportunities to talk and learn with other Columbians about the benefits of urban trees. Certified arborists will show you how to properly plant a tree and care for it to ensure that it thrives for years to come, and you can ask questions and get help to select the right tree for your space from our list of free shade trees for your property.
These events are free and open to everyone.
Beat the Heat,
Columbia…
Plant a Tree!
A Cool Opportunity
If you own a property in greater Columbia, you could receive up to 3 shade tree at no cost, plus a TreeDiaper for each tree to reduce maintenance.
Tell your neighbors. Tell your friends.
The goal is to plant thousands of new shade trees in greater Columbia to restore our urban canopy.
