For our 2026 Community Canopy Program, you qualify for a free tree if you live in the Hyde Park neighborhood.

We encourage you to plant your own tree so that you can experience the joy and satisfaction of investing in a greener, healthier future. However, if you are not physically able to plant the tree or need assistance, we will send a volunteer to help you. Just contact us and let us know you need our help!

You can expect the junipers to be around 2 ft. tall and the rest of the trees to be anywhere from 4-6 ft. tall. At this size, they can fit inside most vehicles for transport from our pick-up location. We recommend bringing a tarp or blanket to protect the inside of your vehicle from dirt and debris.

You can sign up and choose your tree on the online reservation portal here: Reserve My Tree

or you can call us directly at 719-225-0650.

Trees will be available for pick-up on Saturday, September 12th, 2026, from 9:00a.m.-12:00p.m. at the Mineral Palace Park Greenhouse.

We will do our best to get your tree to you if you are unable to pick up your tree on this date, however, we cannot promise that unclaimed trees after this date will be saved. You may have a friend, family member or neighbor pick up your tree for you as long as they can provide a copy of the order confirmation email or text sent to you by the Arbor Day Foundation.

At this time, we only have funding available for one tree per household.

For 2026, you can choose from the following 6 species:

• Sensation Box Elder

• Western Hackberry

• Greenspire Linden

• Canada Red Chokecherry

• Texas Red Oak

• Rocky Mountain Juniper

There are 25 of each species for a total of 150 trees. We encourage you to reserve early to make sure you get the tree you want.

Please reach out to us if you have questions about which tree will be most appropriate for your space.
