      • Trees For All

        The Trees for All Oregonians Program is a collaborative project led by OUR Community Forestry in partnership with Plant Oregon Nursery. The initiative addresses environmental justice, climate adaptation, and community empowerment by subsidizing the cost of climate-resilient trees for underserved areas ensuring they too benefit from increased urban canopy coverage.

      • About the Program:

        Thanks to funding from the Oregon Department of Forestry, Plant Oregon Nursery is currently growing 4,000 climate-resilient trees to be sold at at heavily subsidized cost. This incentivizes and enables tree planting organizations across the state to plant more trees in disadvantaged communities.

        Trees are eligible to be purchased by any individual or organization as long as they're planted in accordance with our eligibility criteria. If you're interested in purchasing trees through this program, follow the steps listed below:

        In addition to growing and planting trees, this program also supports workforce development by providing internships and job opportunities for individuals interested in urban forestry careers. Additionally, as part of the program, OUR Community Forestry hosts virtual workshops to educate community members on tree care and the environmental and social benefits of urban forestry.

      • How to apply to purchase trees:

        Selection, payment, & pick-up.

        Plant Oregon will assist you with selecting species and quantities, making your payment, and picking-up your trees.

        This program provides climate-resilient species only. You can view potential offerings in our Tree Catalog; however, not all catalog species will be available, and inventory is subject to change.

      • FAQs

        What species are available and how much do they cost?

        Species availability varies from year to year because trees require multiple years to grow to planting size. As a result, different species become ready for harvest at different times. All trees offered through the program are grown by Plant Oregon Nursery, and the grant funding requires the nursery to provide only climate-resilient tree stock. Because of these growing practices and program requirements, not all tree species are available through the program.

        The program provides trees at a substantial discount, with participants saving an average of $145 per tree. Most trees cost between $145 and $350, though pricing varies depending on the species and size of the tree.

        We recommend completing an application so our team can connect you with Plant Oregon Nursery to discuss current inventory, species availability, and pricing. If the available species do not meet your project's needs or budget, you are under no obligation to purchase trees through the program.

        Who can participate in the program?

        Anyone planning to plant trees within the program's eligible planting zones in Oregon is welcome to participate. Eligibility is based on the location where the trees will be planted, not who is planting them. Participants may include individual property owners, tree planting organizations, municipalities, schools, businesses, landscapers, and other community partners.

        To determine whether your planting site is eligible, view our eligibility map. All planting locations must be within orange polygons or on Title I school campuses.

        Please note that all participants who purchase trees through the program must sign our Planting Partner Agreement, which includes a commitment to providing basic establishment care for the trees. Additionally, every tree planted through the program must be inventoried (including a photo) using our in-house Survey123 questionnaire.
