Living Legacy Trees

For only $25, you can give a gift that lasts for decades.

Your gift of a Living Legacy Tree will support Great River Greening’s ongoing land-based restoration by:

• Restoring resilient landscapes

• Addressing critical biodiversity loss, and

• Increasing carbon sequestration and storage.

Whether you wish to give a Living Legacy Tree in honor or in memory of someone, your thoughtful gift will have a direct impact on Great River Greening project sites across the state of Minnesota.

Here’s how the Living Legacy Tree program works: 

• Complete the Living Legacy Tree order form on the sidebar (desktop) or below (mobile) and we’ll send your loved one a commemorative card and information about Great River Greening’s work to restore forests and efforts to improve urban/community tree canopies throughout Minnesota.

• You get to choose the recipient of the Living Legacy Tree card, whether it’s the loved ones of the honoree or the honoree directly.

• What if you want to donate multiple Living Legacy Trees?

  • If you want to donate multiple trees for the same recipient, fill in a custom donation amount ($25 per tree; 2 trees = $50; 3 trees = $75; 4 trees = $100; etc.) and fill in the form for your one recipient.

  • If you want to donate trees to multiple recipients, you may either submit the form once for each recipient, or contact us at greening@greatrivergreening.org to coordinate larger orders of Living Legacy Trees.

Please note: because of postage costs we can only send physical cards within the United States. Additionally, if you’d prefer an electronic notification rather than a printed and mailed card, please let us know.

If you have any questions, please contact greening@greatrivergreening.org.
