NYSDEC’s Trees for Tribs and Urban Forestry

NYSDEC’s
Trees for Tribs:

The Trees for Tribs program provides free native trees and shrubs to plant along stream buffers (Rockland County included). Though the plantings are provided potted and free of charge, please note that applicants will be responsible to plant what they receive, and will be responsible for the maintenance thereafter . CCE strongly recommends incorporating deer fencing or other similar protection around plantings. This program is open to homeowners as well.
