Trees for the Holidays

Consider giving a gift of a Tribute Tree to your friend or family member this holiday season. A Tribute Tree, sponsored by the Friends of the Parks and Trails of St. Paul and Ramsey County, is one that you give in honor of someone and it is planted in a park by park staff. This helps to "reforest" our beautiful parks.

Trees cost $100 each or three trees for $250. A hand-stamped holiday card announcing your gift will be sent by The Friends to the person you honor. After the tree is planted next summer, the Friends send the recipient a map showing its location.

Trees may be planted in Ramsey County parks or in the city of Saint Paul parks. Tree species preferred by each community are listed on the Friends website at this link.

For more information call 651.698.4543 or visit the website above.
