Lowell Tree Planting Zone

Lowell Tree Planting Zone – Free Trees Available

The Lowell Parks & Conservation Trust, the City of Lowell, and the Massachusetts Dept. of Conservation & Recreation (DCR) have partnered to plant trees in the area of the city where they are most needed.

We’re hoping to create a significant increase in tree canopy to provide energy savings, shade, and air quality improvements for the residents of these neighborhoods.

If your address is within the zone on the map, you can sign up for a free tree at this website.
