Rooted in Action.
Growing a Greener Tomorrow.
Green Columbus is a sustainability-focused nonprofit striving to activate volunteer engagement, grow equitable tree canopy coverage, and foster resilient communities. Throughout the year we host volunteer activities to plant, care for, and distribute trees at no cost to residents of the community. In the fall, we distribute trees from Linden, Hilltop, South Side, and our many community partners.
Green Columbus is increasing tree coverage for all Columbus communities.
Empowering Central Ohio to Lead in Sustainability
Green Columbus is dedicated to creating a more sustainable and resilient Central Ohio by empowering individuals, businesses, and communities to take environmental action. From organizing the city’s largest Earth Day celebration to supporting year-round green initiatives, we foster grassroots change that improves our shared environment, promotes equity, and builds a thriving, healthy future for all.
Our Programs
In order to celebrate the work of our incredible volunteers and sponsors, Green Columbus hosts an annual Earth Day celebration on the banks of the Scioto. Join us and help build a community of sustainability-minded individuals in the 614.
