The Western PA Conservancy will hold a workshop March 2 to help those interested in filling out an application for TreeVitalize Pittsburgh tree planting grants.

The workshop will be held at the Conservancy’s office at 800 Waterfront Dr., Pittsburgh starting at 6:00 p.m.

Pittsburgh and Allegheny County neighborhoods can apply for trees and other services to support street, park and riverfront tree plantings by the Pittsburgh TreeVitalize Program administered by the Western PA Conservancy.   Application deadline is March 18.

Submitting an application does not guarantee your group will receive trees, and funding for seasonal plantings is limited. Please review your community’s eligibility and selection criteria before applying.

Please contact Jeffrey Bergman, TreeVitalize Director, at 412-586-2396 or send email to: trees@paconserve.org to discuss your planting plan before moving forward with your project.
