What is Treesilience?

Don’t misread this as tree “silence”. This is about tree “RESILIENCE”!

Treesilience is a growing national initiative focused on removing the barriers to healthy urban canopy by leveling the planting field.

Treesilience focuses on:

1) Removing dead or dying trees to create new plantable spaces

2) Pruning large trees to extend a tree’s life

3) Replacing lost tree canopy by replanting trees at a ratio of 2:1

Treesilience offers a solution for homeowners who otherwise could not afford the cost of getting their dead or dying tree removed or their mature tree maintained. However, the purpose of Treesilience is not only about removing hazards for homeowners. The vision of Treesilience is to grow a resilient tree canopy in neighborhoods that need it most.
