Become a tree champion

As part of the NSW Government’s Greening Our City program, City of Parramatta will be planting more than 2,600 trees in neighbourhoods identified as benefitting the most from tree planting.

We’re looking to cool our neighbourhoods, improve air-quality and make our streets and parks healthier and happier places for everyone to enjoy.

What can I do?

Planting will happen in stages, starting in April 2022. Once trees are planted they will be cared for by Council for 12 months while they establish. But we’re looking for tree champions who can report to us if a tree in their neighbourhood needs extra attention.

Each tree will have a special tag with an individual tree number that records the type of tree and planting details. If you join us as a tree champion for your neighbourhood, your job will be to monitor the trees in your street and neighbouring streets that will be assigned to you, take note of trees that need help and drop us an email. We’ll also ask all our official tree champions to do a formal check-in on the trees allocated to them every three (3) months and send us a picture of each tree.

As an official Tree Champion, when you send in your first formal check-in pics for your trees, we’ll send you a $50 gift card.
