Start a Native Tree Nursery
Cool It Burque wants YOU to start a native tree nursery!
We can cool our city at ground level by generating a canopy of native trees and shrubs. You can help us prepare to plant urban pocket-forests by raising native tree and shrub seedlings. It's easy, low input, and fun!
👉Here is our list of native trees we would love you to help us grow!

👉Learn how to propagate and plant native Mesquites!
Want to learn hands on? Join us for a workshop where we'll teach you how to:
Identify native plants and collect seeds on your regular walks
Germinate seeds and raise seedlings in pots in the shade
Use the seedlings to help plant pocket-forests in yards and public spaces across our community
Join our mailing list below to become a tree nursery participant, and we will check in with you a couple of times a year to see how things are going!
