The Arbor Day Foundation

The Arbor Day Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to planting, nurturing, and celebrating trees. Rather than operating as a traditional local tree-service contractor, the organization works through members, businesses, communities, and thousands of local planting partners to support reforestation, community tree planting, disaster recovery, and environmental conservation. The Foundation reports that its network has planted more than half a billion trees across more than 60 countries. It also provides extensive educational resources covering tree selection, planting, watering, pruning, mulching, storm recovery, diseases, pests, and overall tree health. For homeowners who need professional work, the organization provides guidance on finding qualified arborists rather than presenting itself as a contractor for services such as tree removal or pruning.
