  • John Bowne Manual for “Grow-Out” School Tree Nursery ______
    Brown Bag Lunch Series Urban Forestry Partnerships in Education John Bowne Manual for “Grow-Out” School Tree Nursery ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ BASED ON THE JOHN BOWNE HIGH SCHOOL MODEL Flushing, Queens New York City MARCH, 2008 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Why and How the John Bowne High School Project Came About As part of the reauthorization of the 1990 Farm Act, Congress provided $20 million to begin a national tree-planting initiative. The National Tree Trust (NTT) was created to invest and use these funds; as its program was developed, a partnership was established with a number of large forest products companies, such as Georgia Pacific and International Paper. Through this partnership, millions of small tree seedlings were distributed to thousands of locations across the country. Volunteers in rural and exurban areas were able to use the seedlings and successfully execute planting projects; however, in urban areas, this system did not work well because the seedlings were too small to be successfully out-planted in most cities. The grow-out station tree nursery system was established by NTT in the late 1990’s to provide an opportunity for volunteers to create planting projects in urban communities. A three-way partnership was put in place for each chosen project: • NTT provided professional guidance and funding, through a contract with a local not-for- profit organization. • A group with a site where the nursery could be successfully established agreed to provide planning and volunteer labor in caring for the seedlings planted at the site, until they were large enough to be successfully out-planted. All trees were required to be distributed for free and planted on publicly owned land.

The USDA is an equal opportunity provider and employer. A special thank you is extended to our project partners, the staff from King County, WA, including Richard Gelb, Matt Kuharic, and Michael Jenkins This guide was developed by Kara E. Reeve, Manager of National Wildlife Federation’s Climate-Smart Communities Program, with support from additional NWF staff including Ian Evans, Patty Glick, Laura Hickey, Ryan Kingston, and Jennifer Murk. Information about NWF’s Climate-Smart Communities Program can be found here: www.nwf.org/climate-smart-communities. 2 Introduction Whether you live in the city overlooking a park, grew up with a backyard tree house, or have hiked in a national forest, you undoubtedly know exactly what poet Joyce Kilmer was feeling when he wrote, "I think that I shall never see a poem as lovely as a tree." Trees are a vital part of our natural world, health, economy, and culture. The ecological benefits of healthy trees, including the habitat, shelter, and food they provide for many birds and small wildlife, are widely known. However, people living in urban areas may not immediately consider the ways in which healthy urban forests are critical Credit: Charlie Archambault infrastructure for human communities, too. For starters, trees are central components of green infrastructure, which is a natural and cost-effective approach that many communities are using to reduce flooding, manage stormwater, improve water quality, and even reduce urban heat.

  • Monitoring Million Trees LA: Tree Performance During the Early Years and Future Benefits
    Arboriculture & Urban Forestry 40(5): September 2014 285 Arboriculture & Urban Forestry 2014. 40(5): 285–300 Monitoring Million Trees LA: Tree Performance During the Early Years and Future Benefits By E. Gregory McPherson Abstract. Million Trees LA (MTLA) is one of several large-scale mayoral tree planting initiatives in the United States, striving to create more livable cities through urban forestry. This study combined field sampling of tree survival and growth with numerical modeling of future benefits to assess performance of MTLA plantings. From 2006 to 2010 MTLA planted a diverse mix of 91,786 trees. Survivorship rates of 79.8%, 90.7%, and 77.1% for street, park and yard trees were relatively high compared to other studies. Growth rates averaged 0.99 and 1.1 cm DBH per year for street and yard trees. They were similar to rates for the same species in Claremont, California, U.S., and trees in other subtropical urban forests. Projected over 40 years, the amounts of CO2 stored per tree planted per year (20.1 kg), avoided emissions (27.7 kg), rainfall interception (1.5 m3), and air conditioning savings (47.4 kWh) exceeded estimates from a previous assess- ment. One reason is that MTLA has planted more larger-stature trees than anticipated. Avoided CO2 emissions from energy savings were relatively large because trees were judiciously located for building shade. Park tree plantings were projected to store the most CO2 (42.0 kg per tree per year) because of their large-stature and high survival rate. Although MTLA has not reached its goal of planting 1 million trees, early results suggest that it is achieving success in terms of tree survival, growth and performance.

  • A Resource List ______
    ACTrees Webcast Series Points Score Trees: Partnering with Professional Sports Teams A Resource List _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ACTrees WEBCAST SERIES The ACTrees Webcast Series is a webcast held at the lunch hour on the third Thursday of each month. The goal is to provide training opportunities for local urban and community forestry practitioners. The trainings highlight successful programs and practices that you may want to adopt in your communities. Webcasts are open to all. Correctly planting and protecting trees is a good thing to do. However, planting and protecting trees also requires coordinating time and resources. ACTrees minimizes such requirements by sharing the innovative ideas and organized approaches of successful projects and models for members to replicate. We invite you to join Alliance for Community Trees for more ways to get involved. Together, we create a strong voice on behalf of the urban forest and make a great difference in the health, beauty, and livability of our communities. We strengthen communities by offering action-oriented approaches that bring people together around a common purpose. TOPIC Partnering with area sports teams is one great way to score more trees for your community. Local nonprofits are hosting plantings with baseball, soccer, football, and hockey teams to enhance urban canopies across the country. Professional teams realize how vital it is to maintain the health of surrounding area environments and are now joining forces with local nonprofits to green their communities. As a result, planting trees for goals, baskets, and home runs has proved a win for fans of teams and fans of trees.
