Minneapolis Tree Distribution

Help us distribute affordable trees to city residents in an effort to make green infrastructure accessible to all!
About this Event

Join us as we distribute trees to local residents! By providing trees at a significant discount, we make tree planting more affordable and accessible. We will work outside and you will get a little dirty. Let's get trees to community members and grow greener futures for all. Please note: available restrooms are typically portapotties and lack running water.

We will email you a reminder two days prior to the event.

Be prepared!

🧥 Wear weather appropriate clothing that can get dirty.

🥾 Wear closed-toe shoes or boots that can get dirty.

💧 Bring a water bottle! This is hard work and it's important to stay hydrated.

☔ Prepare for any weather - we work in the rain! Event will be cancelled or postponed in unsafe conditions (lightning, extreme temperatures, severe weather).

What to expect on site:

🧤 Check in at the Tree Trust tent to receive work gloves, a high visibility vest, and instructions.

🦺 Tree Trust staff will ask you to help direct traffic, hand out educational materials, or load trees and bagged mulch into residents' vehicles.

Tree Trust volunteers should be prepared to:

• Stand, walk, and carry trees and bags of mulch
• Lift up to 30 pounds (we encourage team lifts for heavier trees)
• Have a meaningful impact on their community!

Tree Trust staff and tree experts will be on hand to supervise and answer any questions!
