Yard Tree Pledge

We are happy you want a tree, but it comes with responsibility and rewards!


I pledge to:


•    Review the planting and care instructions that come with my tree before planting.


•    Water the tree 15 gallons of water per week, May-Oct, for at least the first three years.


•    Plant the tree at the address provided that is inside Portland city limits.


•    Plant the tree on my property, not in the planting strip, or in the public right-of-way (the space between the sidewalk and curb).


•    Plant the tree in the ground, not in a container.


•    Allow Urban Forestry to monitor the tree's survival and health once a year.


•    Contact Urban Forestry or a tree care professional with questions about my tree.


•    Return the tree to Urban Forestry if I cannot plant it.


•    Ask permission from the property owner to plant the tree, if I am a renter.
