Holden Arboretum launches People for Trees campaign to green up balding patches of Cleveland, Northeast Ohio Steven Litt, cleveland.com
CLEVELAND, Ohio Government can only do so much to solve the tree-cover crisis that’s spreading bald patches across Northeast Ohio, making communities uglier, less livable, more polluted, and more vulnerable to flooding, erosion and heat waves.
That’s why the nonprofit Holden Forests & Gardens is launching a “People for Trees,’ a campaign to enlist volunteers to plant 15,000 trees across the region by 2025.
Holden, which operates a 3,500-acre arboretum in Kirtland and the 11-acre Cleveland Botanical Garden in University Circle, hopes to enlist some of its 17,000 members, 1,500 volunteers and 380,000 annual visitors to buy, plant, and care for the trees on private property, in yards or businesses.
