The Greening of Detroit

The Greening of Detroit inspires sustainable growth of a healthy urban community through trees, green spaces, healthy living, education, training, and job opportunities. For 37 years, we’ve been committed to changing landscapes and changing lives—restoring Detroit’s tree canopy, engaging communities, and creating pathways to a greener, healthier future.

The Greening of Detroit is a non-profit organization focused on enhancing the quality of life for Detroiters by planting trees, providing job training and involving our youth in the education of the natural environment. We involve Detroiters in the process through community engagement, green spaces, education and jobs.
