Tree for All
Tree for All is a collaborative initiative working to restore and protect trees and natural areas across the Tualatin River watershed. The program brings together partners, communities, and landowners to advance large-scale conservation goals.
WORKING FOR A COMMON GOAL: A HEALTHIER AND MORE RESILIENT WATERSHED
Tree for All Initiatives for a Climate Resilient and Healthy Watershed
Over the next 15 years, Tree for All Partners will direct their focus toward two primary initiatives: protecting and restoring connected habitats, and building a healthy tree canopy. The ultimate goal of this work is to build sustainable nature-based solutions to support a healthy watershed that thrives in the face of climate change.
Healthy Canopy Initiative
Tree for All Partners will foster the creation of a more equitable, climate-resilient landscape across the Tualatin River Watershed's urban and natural areas by supporting the growth and development of a healthy tree canopy. The group will first define the characteristics of a healthy tree canopy, and will find mechanisms to fund and steward the canopy's development and maintenance. By 2040, Tree for All Partners will plant and steward 150,000 trees in neighborhoods throughout the watershed through Healthy Canopy Initiative projects.
Connected Habitats Initiative
Through inclusive, collaborative mapping and engagement, Tree for All Partners will prioritize and implement projects to conserve, restore, and steward habitat connectivity, addressing barriers for wildlife and people and enhancing the climate resiliency of the Tualatin River Watershed. By 2040, Tree for All Partners will restore and protect 15,000 acres of land throughout the watershed with Connected Habitats Initiative projects.
