Memorial Tree Planting Program

The City of Winter Springs appreciates the many benefits that trees provide for our community.   Trees bring an important natural element into our man-made environment as they shade our streets, homes and parks, purify the air, and produce leaves, flowers, fruits and bark of interesting color and texture.   Along with these obvious benefits, a tree's stature, strength, and endurance tend to provide it a cathedral-like quality; consequently, trees are often planted as living memorials.  The City also believes in providing opportunities for residents of Winter Springs who wish to acknowledge or remember significant individuals by allowing trees to be planted in select parks and public areas.
