Tree Pittsburgh’s volunteer program can fit any individual, group or corporate need.
Individuals, sign up for any open event using our calendar. Registration is required for all events so we have a proper head count. If you’re part of a larger group which would like to volunteer together on tree care and maintenance in the City of Pittsburgh, contact Director of Tree Care and Reforestation Jake Milofsky. If you’d like to volunteer at the Tree Pittsburgh Heritage Nursery, contact Nursery Director Megan Palomo.
Corporate groups interested in volunteering, visit our Corporate Giving page.
