IF YOU WANT TO PLANT A TREE…

IF A TREE NEEDS MAINTENANCE…

For example: tree or stump removal, fallen branch pick-up, branch pruning, or risk assessment

  • If the tree is on public property (including sidewalks), call 311. A trained tree keeper or Forestry Crew will address the problem. Don’t try to do it yourself—this can’t be done without a permit!
  • If the tree is on private property, there unfortunately aren’t currently any programs in Providence to provide support. See the list of suggested tree companies for hire below! NOTE: removing a tree bigger than 32 inches in diameter at 4.5 feet off the ground requires the permission of the City Forester!
  • If you’re a business or institution looking for help with young tree stewardship or maintenance (including structural pruning or watering), consider hiring Garden Time’s Canopy Crew!
