Our mission is to involve the community and schools in planting trees for both recreation and habitat and to encourage the education and value of planting native trees back into our communities. We believe that trees form a foundation in which both man and animal can mutually benefit, can share in their splendor, can nurture with nature.

The Trail of Trees has begun on South Padre Island and, in time, will travel to communities everywhere.

“Trees are the best monuments that a man can erect to his own memory. They speak his praises without flattery, and they are blessings to children yet unborn.”

- Lord Orrery, 1749
