Mission Statement
To promote and increase awareness of proper tree
planting and care in Nevada and provide leadership,
development and support for professional and volunteer
community forestry programs across the state.
For the past decade the Nevada Shade Tree Council has
been a lead organization Nevada promoting tree planting
and related educational programs for tree care and
maintenance. The Council, a non-profit volunteer
organization, was founded to serve as the advisory
council to the State Forester for the Nevada Division of
Forestry’s federally funded Urban Forestry Program. The
Council’s Education Committee carries on year around
activities that may include workshops, tree plantings,
and the award and presentations of arboriculture
resource books and materials to selected libraries
around the state.
Projects include:
- Presentations of a slide program developed on the
‘Benefits of Urban Forestry’.
- STOP TOPPING campaign and bumper sticker in 1999.
- The review and recommendation of Urban and
Community Forestry Program Grant Proposals.
For a bumper sticker, a slide program presentation,

development of a community forestry tree board, contact:
