Summary

Did you know that New York City is home to over 600,000 street trees? These resilient trees, growing from small sidewalk beds, provide essential environmental benefits that help keep New Yorkers healthy. Join the Lower East Side Ecology Center for an engaging tree walk to explore the vital role of street trees, learn how to identify common species, discover why certain trees are selected for urban planting, and uncover the connection between street trees and environmental justice. This walk will be led by the Ecology Center’s very own Street Tree Care Coordinator, Maddy Lopez-Molina.

Attendees should wear comfortable walking shoes and bring water, sunscreen, and a hat. We will be completely outdoors. There will be public restrooms available at Tompkins Square Park.
