Friends of the Urban Forest is a San Francisco-based nonprofit that mobilizes neighbors to plant and care for street trees and sidewalk gardens, contributing to urban greening and climate resilience. Since its founding in 1981, the organization, a mid-sized nonprofit, has aimed to grow the city's urban forest, foster community, and support local leadership in climate solutions through hands-on planting and stewardship. To date, it has planted about 60,000 trees, approximately half of San Francisco's street trees.

It serves San Francisco residents and neighborhood groups seeking to improve urban canopies and green spaces by providing opportunities to participate in planting and care. The organization collaborates with partner institutions to extend its reach, as seen in 2024 collaborations with the University of California, San Francisco to plant new trees in the Parnassus Heights neighborhood.
