One of the many ways we are aiming to enhance the health of the Olentangy Watershed is through campaigning for the planting of trees. Our goal is to partner with the Olentangy Watershed community and have everyone planting and caring for trees. We do this by providing the community with education on the variety of benefits that come with planting these earth-loving, oxygen-providing, water quality-enhancing wonders!
- Columbus Neighborhood Urban Tree Canopy Coverage
- Urban Heat Island Effect will be significantly reduced!
The Benefits of Trees
- A few…
- A few more…
- More Benefits…
- Do we need to say it again? – Obviously endless benefits
- The I-tree tool will help you analyse the benefit of a tree you currently have or will assess the benefit over a period of time. Assess the impact of the trees on your property now and nurture that tree love!
- Cranbrook I-tree Assessment – This report is an example of what you can learn about the trees on your property. It covers the tree impact we’ve made and will continue to have at Cranbrook Elementary since planting them Fall 2016.

Learn how to plant a tree
Come out to the FLOW Worthington Tree Nursery to pick up some saplings for your yard. All saplings will be bare root and vary in height, and will be given away in plastic bags. You’re welcome to bring a pot with soil as we will have no soil available at the nursery. The nursery is on the east side of Godown Dog Park between the park and railroad tracks. We hope you’ll come out and get a tree to plant at home!
