National NeighborWoods® Month is an annual campaign to plant and care for community trees during the month of October. Each year, tens of thousands of volunteers take action to make their communities greener and healthier by planting trees—turning their neighborhoods into vibrant, livable communities! Join the celebration!
 
 
National NeighborWoods Month began in 2005. During the month of October, local organizations nationwide engage tens of thousands of volunteers to green up their neighborhoods. Together, Alliance for Community Trees organizations have planted and cared for more than 15 million trees with help from more than 5 million volunteers. Trees have a remarkable economic, environmental, and health benefits for our communities including decreasing utility bills, increasing property values, and reducing carbon emissions.
