Free Tree for Your Front Yard
MORPC Critical Home Repair Program in partnership with Green Columbus
Homeowners can request a free tree, 8 to 10 feet tall, professionally planted at no cost
How it works
-
Step 1: Request your tree
Complete the request form.
-
Step 2: Schedule your site visit
We’ll reach out to set a time, and an ISA Certified Arborist will check whether your front yard can safely fit a tree.
-
Step 3: Get matched with the right tree
If your yard qualifies, our team selects the species, size and planting spot best suited to your front yard. We’ll confirm the choice with you before moving forward.
-
Step 4: Sign your permission slip
Green Columbus will send you a permission slip with a deadline. Sign and return it by that date to approve your planting.
-
Step 5: Welcome your new tree
We plant in spring, fall or winter, weather permitting. Most plantings happen six months to a year after approval.
