REGIONS WHERE YOUR TREE WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE

BRING THE COUNTRY BACK, ONE TREE AT A TIME. Jeopardized habitats. Impacted watersheds. And hundreds of thousands of acres of rich, natural beauty destroyed. It doesn’t always take a wildfire; invasive species and over development have taken their toll on areas once carpeted with forest. But in a region near you, renewal is taking place. In partnership with the National Forest Foundation, you can plant a tree in a critically affected area.

WILDFIRE

Reforesting in Southern California
In the past decade, severe wildfires have ravaged the Angeles National Forest in Southern California. The Station Fire in 2009 was the largest fire in Los Angeles County history, burning over 161,000 acres and affecting all aspects of the ecosystem, including forestland, vegetation, water supply, and animal habitat. It burned hundreds of public buildings, bridges, and campgrounds, as well as neighboring homes. By selecting this option, you’ll help return this high-desert, snow-capped treasure to its former glory.

WILDFIRE

Reforesting in colorado
In June of 2002, the perfect conditions for a devastating fire converged in the forests near Denver, Colorado. For 20 days, the Hayman Fire raged through the Pike National Forest, burning a total of 137,760 acres including state and private lands. In its wake, the fire consumed 600 structures, jeopardized habitat for numerous threatened or endangered species, and severely impacted the water source for more than 75% of Colorado's 5 million residents as well as states downstream. Join our effort to restore the watershed, the forest, and the recreational center for more than 4 million residents and millions more visitors to Colorado’s Pike National Forest.

PRAIRIE RESTORATION

Restoring the native tallgrass prairie
The Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie is a fascinating and unique ecosystem located just one hour from Chicago. This former Department of Defense site has long been used for agricultural purposes but is slowly being restored to native tallgrass prairie. More than 100 songbirds, deer, waterfowl, and hundreds of native wildflowers, grasses, shrubs, and other plants are finding new homes in the restored landscape. Help them find new space by selecting the Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie.

REFORESTATION

Restoring the longleaf pine forest
The majestic longleaf pine forest once covered more than 90 million acres of the South. Due to competition from invasive trees, conversion of forest to agricultural lands, and other factors, the forest currently exists in fragments covering just 3 million acres. By choosing to plant longleaf pines in Ocala National Forest in Florida, you will help provide native habitat for several wildlife species, help create beautiful, open forests, and help restore one of America’s greatest forest systems.

HYDROLOGY RENEWAL

Restoration of the New Jersey Highlands
Long threatened by development, the New Jersey Highlands is a critical landscape of forests and feeder streams that ultimately provide more than one million residents of New Jersey with drinking water. Proposed development altered the area’s hydrology and impacted water supplies. In a unique partnership, the National Forest Foundation and several New Jersey conservation organizations are working to restore and reforest this area. After appropriate fencing is installed, locally grown native trees and shrubs will be planted on converted agricultural land and will help filter water for New Jersey’s residents, provide habitat for deer and other wildlife, and preserve publicly owned forests for generations to come.
