Volunteer Based
Our work is done thanks to the help of volunteers. Trees are planted by volunteers.
A volunteer board manages our annual planting day.
Tree Planters
We like to get dirty. We plant trees and teach others about proper tree installation and care.
Community
We want Laramie’s community forest to grow.
And we want the Laramie community to help with it.
What we
want to do
Rooted in Laramie seeks to develop a long-term tree planting program that supports a diverse and resilient community forest and engages citizens through volunteerism and education about proper planting and care of trees.
Grow Laramie’s forest together
We want people in Laramie to learn about more varieties of trees that are available to add to their urban landscape. We plant in front yards so our neighbors can see what is out there and learn.
Our Trees
Our trees are deeply discounted, so only a limited number will be sold.
Wondering what trees we’ll be planting this year? Check out our tree species list to learn more about what we are offering.
Trees will be available on a first-come, first-served basis and are in limited quantities. We highly recommend submitting your application as soon as possible so that we can conduct a planting site evaluation, at which point you will be able to pay for your trees and reserve your species.
Once you have been approved, we will send you our secure online payment form where you can select up to two (2) trees and reserve your species for our upcoming planting day.
What is included with each tree purchase?
-
With the help of a trained tree planter, our volunteers will install the tree for you for free.
-
We properly mulch the tree with locally sourced and natural mulch.
-
Each tree comes with a XX-gallon water bag that allows for easy and slow release watering of the trees. Fill it once or twice during a week to ensure your tree is properly watered.
-
We use proper staking techniques with arbor ties and stakes to help the tree get established. With Laramie's wind, we don't want your tree to blow over.
-
Our plastic tree wraps help protect against sunscald.
-
We will tell all you would like to know about your tree. From watering to pruning, mulching, and anything else your tree needs for year-round care, we'll let ya know what it takes to keep your tree thriving.. We also send out regular tree care tips via email and social media.
