Dear Tree City USA Community Member,

On behalf of the Arbor Day Foundation, I’m thrilled to congratulate Takoma Park on earning recognition as a 2022 Tree City USA. Residents of Takoma Park should be proud to live in a community that makes the planting and care of trees a priority.

Founded in 1976, Tree City USA is a partnership between the Arbor Day Foundation, the U.S. Forest Service, and the National Association of State Foresters. Takoma Park is part of an incredible network of more than 3,600 Tree City USA communities nationwide, with a combined population of 155 million.

Over the last few years, the value and importance of trees has become increasingly clear. Cities and towns across the globe are facing issues with air quality, water resources, personal health and well-being, and energy use. Takoma Park has taken steps to create to a brighter, greener future.

We hope you are as excited as we are to share this accomplishment with your local media and your residents. Enclosed in this packet is a press release for you to distribute at your convenience.

We’re excited to celebrate your commitment to the people and trees of Takoma Park. Thank you, again, for your efforts.
