Certificate Program

In an effort to replant West Des Moines’ urban tree canopy, the City and Trees Forever have partnered with six local nurseries to provide tree vouchers for West Des Moines residents! Eligible participants can qualify for a $100 certificate towards the purchase of a tree on the preferred species list.

To receive a certificate, please fill out the registration form below and attend an hour-long informational session. The session will provide you with information on the work of Trees Forever, as well as resources to help you plant and care for your new tree. A limited number of certificates will be distributed at a first come, first served basis.
