Applications are open to residents, small businesses, and community spaces located in the City of Austin’s Full Purpose Jurisdiction and Austin Energy electricity customers.

Since tree care is a long-term commitment, applicants must commit to nurturing the tree, especially through regular watering during the critical first two years of establishment.

We follow the “Right Tree, Right Place” principal. Applicants must have enough space* for the tree to grow and flourish.
