Trees New York is an environmental services organization in New York City focused on planting, preserving, and protecting the city’s trees through education and community participation. It operates two tree-planting initiatives, FruiTrees New York and Evergreening the City. The group trains volunteers to become tree-care experts and runs the Citizen Pruner program, the designation by NYC Parks that licenses New Yorkers to legally prune street trees. It is a small, New York City–based organization offering three educational programs: Youth Environmental Literacy for K-12 students, in and out of school; tree care training for adults, and the Young Urban Forester internship, along with hands-on volunteer opportunities. In January 2023, it announced a partnership with AnswerConnect to support its work.
