SWR is proud to share that this year, our shovels broke ground on 19 new microforests, each contributing to the naturalization of small urban spaces. Since our program began in 2021, we have planted 5,183 trees and shrubs across 55 microforests, steadily increasing the number of plantings each year. We are always delighted to welcome both returning and new partners, collaborators, and sponsors as our program continues to grow. Looking back on the year, it’s rewarding to reflect on our accomplishments, the communities we’ve served, and everyone who helped make this year so successful.
