Tree
Rodgers Forge is a resident-run community organization that is working
hard to plant FREE trees in our neighborhood. The organization’s
primary mission is to preserve the tree canopy that is so vital to
maintaining our neighborhood’s beauty and quality of life.
With
numerous trees in the area reaching the end of their life cycle, it is
important that we do our part to maintain our community’s clean air and
picturesque streets. As such, Tree Rodgers Forge is teaming up with
Blue Water Baltimore (BWB) to make it easy for neighbors to plant the
free trees provided by BWB in the shared county easement areas (where
they exist) in the front of properties.
Tree Rodgers Forge needs your
help to maintain the healthy and attractive neighborhood that Rodgers
Forge residents love. Simply having a tree planted in your yard can
increase property value, cool home temperatures in the summer, reduce
street noise, clean the air, and filter and absorb rainwater runoff. In
addition to helping you save on your electric bill, these benefits
contribute to the overall health of our community, local streams and the
Chesapeake Bay.
If you would like to help Tree
Rodgers Forge preserve the tree canopy of the neighborhood you know and
love, just click the link below and fill out the one-page application
