Join us for a special community celebration as Tree Trust marks 50 years of transforming lives and landscapes across the Twin Cities. This free, interactive event brings together partners, supporters, and community members to honor our shared impact—and explore what comes next.

What to Expect

Held at Tree Trust’s working Landscape Services site, this open-house style event is designed for guests to explore, connect, and engage at their own pace. There’s no formal program—just a vibrant, welcoming environment to experience the work firsthand. You'll have the opportunity to:

Take a walk through a nature trail built by youth trainees, developing skills for meaningful careers
Discover how our gravel bed nursery helps communities grow their urban forests
Watch demonstrations of the tools and equipment used in landscaping and tree care
Witness a tree-climbing demonstration
Try on professional safety gear and learn why workplace safety is essential in the green industry
Have conversations with Tree Trust staff, trainees, volunteers, alumni, and community partners
Add your name to our Family Tree, celebrating the many people who have made our work possible
Enjoy casual eats from a local food truck while you connect with fellow attendees
Relax and enjoy the outdoor setting with lawn games and informal gathering spaces designed for conversation and connection
