TreeKeepers
What is TreeKeepers?
Baltimore TreeKeepers is TreeBaltimore’s free, city-wide tree stewardship program open to all city residents interested in helping Baltimore’s trees.
As a TreeKeeper, you’ll learn how to help plant and care for trees on your street, in your neighborhood, around your schools, and in your parks. And, you’ll join a growing community of people who care about Baltimore City’s tree canopy.
