What's all this then?
The Mission
Our mission is to help urban residents find simple ways to notice and care for trees in their local urban forest.
In tree-time, we turn everyday people into urban foresters.
And have fun doing it!
Wild Service
Our events and activities help participants realise ways they benefit from and can positively impact urban trees.
With the right information and opportunities to take action, everyone can help urban trees thrive.
Our Values
All that we do is rooted in hope for a more equitably enjoyed urban forest, now, for all species, and for all generations. You can count on us to be:
- Honest
- Optimistic
- Proactive
- Enthusiastic
