Whatcom Million Trees Project

Our Mission:

To spur positive ACTION for trees & forests that will enhance our community's health, equity, biodiversity, and resilience in this era of rapid climate change.

Our Three-Pronged Strategy To Accomplish The Above:

Within Whatcom County, we...

• PLANT the right native tree seedlings in the right places -- in public-purposed lands and at-risk neighborhoods that other entities do not restore.

• PROTECT mature trees in urban neighborhoods and key watersheds via policy improvements, development advocacy, increased awareness, and the removal of tree-killing invasives.

• CONNECT people together in hands-on positive action outdoors and at special events that highlight the multifaceted value of trees and forests.
