A properly selected tree, given a suitable location and proper care,
will outlive the person who plants it, and will continue to benefit people
for generations to come. Trees create green spaces in communities. Placing
the right trees in the right places, benefits you, your home and your
community now and in the future.
Greening and maintaining a community landscape is a long-term commitment
that depends on people! Design-built landscapes with living
trees, requires an infusion of human energy to survive. Parks and other
built landscapes need people for completion.
If you have an interest in improving our environment through better
tree selection and sound maintenance practices, then the New Jersey Shade
Tree Federation is for you! You may also visit our Resources page
for useful publications and links to other relevant sites.
