Our neighborhood got a little greener recently. The Sunnyside Neighborhood Association, in collaboration with Friends of the Urban Forest (FUF), organized a tree planting day on Saturday, May 31st, and it was a resounding success!

Volunteers of all ages participated, showing a real commitment to enhancing our local environment. In total, 43 beautiful new trees were planted in tree basins throughout the neighborhood.

The Sunnyside Neighborhood Association and FUF have been actively working to bring more greenery to our streets. In April, homeowners had the opportunity to request a free street tree, with options for concrete removal and stump grinding available at no additional cost. FUF and the city are also committed to the crucial work of watering and caring for these young trees for the first three years.
