This report describes methods used in Olympia, WA to allow low-income and underrepresented citizens to receive the benefits of urban forestry.
This report describes methods used in Olympia, WA to allow low-income and underrepresented citizens to receive the benefits of urban forestry. For example, some low-income citizens will be provided a free source of food (fruit trees). “Project goals were met to identify and overcome obstacles to providing urban forestry services, develop sustainable programs to ensure continued service, and create models of programs and projects that can be duplicated by other communities.” [Page 1]. Project Headings: Fruit Trees, South Puget Sound Habitat for Humanity, Landscape Assessments, Volunteer Tree Care Day, and Downtown Tree Planting, and Hazard Tree Removals/Firewood Distribution.
