Across North Dallas, cities are taking major steps to protect and expand their urban forests—and it’s a win for everyone who calls this area home. From Plano’s median tree replacement projects to Dallas’s annual free tree giveaway, these local efforts highlight just how essential healthy trees are to our neighborhoods.
The City of Plano recently began a large-scale project to replace aging or stressed trees in medians along Park Boulevard. The city is choosing native, drought-tolerant species that are better suited to North Texas weather and soil. This initiative, part of Plano’s Urban Forest Master Plan, focuses on long-term sustainability and canopy growth—values we share here at Torres Tree Company.
Meanwhile, Dallas residents can take advantage of the Branch Out Dallas program, which provides free five-gallon trees for homeowners to plant on their property. The program helps offset the loss of older trees and contributes to cleaner air, cooler streets, and a more beautiful cityscape.
These local projects show the growing recognition that trees aren’t just decorative—they’re essential infrastructure. They cool our cities, filter the air, and make our communities healthier and more vibrant.
