Tree Giveaway Event Survey.

Planting new trees enhances Denton’s urban canopy and helps our city thrive! Trees are vital for sustainable community growth, economic vitality, and public health. They also:

• beautify neighborhoods and public spaces;
• increase property values;
• lower energy consumption of homes and businesses;
• boost consumer spending; and
• encourage outdoor physical activity.

Read through these resources BEFORE you plant:

• Plant your tree properly (yes, there are MANY wrong ways to plant a tree!)
• Keep your tree growing and thriving with good pruning practices
• Get the kids in your life involved in planting and caring for your tree! Check out PBS’ Plum Landing series online for a great tree planting video and other fun ideas.
