MAKE A DIFFERENCE !
Volunteer opportunities with Let’s Plant Trees include assisting with planting native tree seedlings, tabling at community fairs, distributing tree seedlings in the spring, and presenting educational materials in schools and libraries. A typical tree planting project involves a commitment of a few hours, a willingness to plant tree seedlings, and a lot of fun! We will provide the seedlings, the tools, and any specific requirements for each project. You just need to bring your enthusiasm for tree planting and working together for the benefit of future generations. Contact us to learn more about volunteer opportunities!
WORK TOGETHER
Let’s Plant Trees offers several ways for interested groups and individuals to get involved! During the spring planting season, we coordinate volunteer tree planting projects with other organizations, schools, and youth groups. We also present educational information in schools and libraries, and at events such as Earth Day fairs. Contact us if you’d like us to share information at your community event, and to learn more about how we can support larger reforestation projects with your group or organization!
FOR A SINGLE PURPOSE
Let's Plant Trees was founded for one single purpose:
​
To promote and facilitate reforestation efforts, to help mitigate the impacts of climate change, pests, wildfire and other disturbances. We provide free tree seedlings to property owners in Minnesota, and we facilitate tree planting projects with other organizations. We are also here to assist by providing species information, providing planting instructions and volunteer support. We recognize the need to increase our reforestation efforts and believe that we can do this together!
​
Our goal is straightforward: let's plant more trees!
EDUCATION
Let's Plant Trees is committed to educational volunteer projects such as presenting information to students and community members at local schools and libraries, and sharing information on tree planting in the form of a workshop. We have developed materials that are available for download, and provide training as needed for each opportunity.
PLANTING
Reforesting our state will require the collective effort of many hands. We invite groups and organizations interested in showcasing their Corporate Social Responsibility to join us in tree planting projects. A team tree planting event can result in hundreds of new trees in just a few hours, creating lasting benefits for our planet and future generations.
DISTRIBUTION
Let's Plant Trees is actively seeking partners in locations across Minnesota to aid in our mission of reforestation across the state. Distribution volunteers store and distribute tree seedlings from their location in the spring, typically over the course of a few days, and provide planting instructions and other information to seedling recipients.
COLLABORATION
COMMUNICATION
COMMUNITY
To achieve our vision of a future where everyone plants trees, we need to collaborate and communicate with community members across the state. We will work together, to achieve this objective, where everyone plants trees, just like everyone brushes their teeth! Send us your ideas on how to work together - we are excited to hear your suggestions!
