Election Results
We are thrilled to announce our participation in Neighborhood Forest's 17th Annual Free Tree Program as part of our Earth Week celebrations this April!
Neighborhood Forest is a nonprofit organization that has helped more than 310,000 children across North America plant their very own trees since 2010 — inspiring environmental stewardship through the joy of planting and growing trees.
How to Participate:
There are three ways to get involved this spring:
Register your child to receive a free tree to plant at home
Purchase trees to plant this spring if you don’t have a child participating (Buy One, Fund One!)
Donate to fund trees in our community — $5 helps place a tree in the hands of a child
Register here: Barnard School Registration
Registration is open now through March 15
Trees (6–12 inches tall) will arrive around Earth Day (April 22)
The tree species will be announced in early April. Neighborhood Forest aims to provide native and/or fruit-bearing, depending on our region.
Other products that are purchased by you will be fulfilled by Neighborhood Forest.
Families who register will receive details about tree pick-up or distribution closer to Earth Day.
Trees will either be sent home with participating children.
Planting & Care Resources
Planting instructions, care tips, and species details will be emailed a few days before tree delivery and will also be available in the Resources section of the Neighborhood Forest website.
Thank you for helping us celebrate Earth Week and grow a greener future together!
