SOLD OUT!

We’re back! TreesCharlotte is kicking off its event season with a Citywide TreeAdoption. We’ll have a huge mix of species, from small flowering to canopy building to evergreen screening. There’s something for everybody.

A link to register for trees will be added here on September 25.

We are seeking TreeMasters to help manage the event.  Click here to register to volunteer.

Here’s what you need to know:

At this time our focus is within the Charlotte city limits. Therefore, we currently limit our participation to Charlotte residents only (we are unable to serve Matthews, Mint Hill, Pineville, Huntersville, Davidson, Cornelius, other municipalities outside Charlotte or Mecklenburg County. 

TreesCharlotte is a non-profit organization that relies on donations to be able to host events like this. Donations are greatly appreciated and help us give more trees to Charlotte residents. Click here to donate.

Below is a draft list of species we hope to offer. We may add or remove species prior to the event. Quantities are limited. Register early to ensure the best selection.

Selections are final and once registered, cannot be changed.  Be sure to research which tree will work best for your yard before registering.
