We were thrilled to host two planting workshops within the last week! Those who attended left with the knowledge of what crops they should plant now for a successful fall harvest. 🍂 Special shoutout to Urban Farmer Derrick Bedward for leading both workshops and sharing something so valuable with our community, you rock!

If you see a beautiful garden in Hartford that makes you stop in your tracks, we want to see it too! 🌻💚

The HUGS Awards are special because they’re a chance to make people feel seen, appreciated, and proud of the spaces they’ve created and cared for.

Help us celebrate the beauty in our community by making a nomination! Simply take a photo of the garden you want to nominate and email the photo and address to [email protected].

It's that time again, put in a request now to get a free tree planted on your property this fall!

Hartford faces some serious environmental challenges. We have one of the highest rates of asthma-related hospitalizations in Connecticut. Summer temperatures here can be up to 19 degrees hotter than nearby towns due to limited tree cover. Flooding can overwhelm streets and basements with stormwater and sewage.

Trees help address these issues and build a healthier local environment, so Trees for Hartford is offering to plant free trees for residents of Hartford who want one!

Be part of the solution. Support your community and enhance your own yard by signing up for a free tree and spreading the word about this initiative.

To learn more and request a free tree, please visit bit.ly/HartfordsFreeTrees
