ORGANIZATION: Trees Matter

  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 10 people are interested

VPA has teamed up with SRP to distribute free shade trees to residents in Maricopa County. Customers have registered in advance, and on this day they will attend a tree-care workshop so they can be prepared to recieve and plant their free shade trees!

We need volunteers to help make this happen!

Shade trees...

  • are an integral part to the urban ecosystem.
  • help cool the environment, making them an effective way to reduce urban heat islands.
  • when strategically planted, help decrease the demand for air conditioning, thus reduce energy usage.
