Our Mission:
The Dakota Tree Project’s mission is to plant and maintain trees and community gardens and provide training for conservation in Albuquerque. Focusing on high-heat, low-income neighborhoods, we attempt to combat systemic disparities in the urban tree canopy.
Get Involved

EDUCAtion
Recognizing education as a valuable tool, the Dakota Tree Project aims to teach members of our community, students and adults, about the benefits of trees in sparsely shaded communities and the systemic inequalities that create disparities in the urban canopy.
advocacy
We fund tree and community garden projects at schools and in disadvantaged neighborhoods to empower and create confortable spaces for youth to enjoy the beauty of nature.
