AES Indiana Trees for Indy
The Trees for Indy program, a partnership of AES Indiana, Keep Indianapolis Beautiful, Inc., and DPW/Indy Parks, has planted more than 15,000 trees in the Indianapolis area since 1990.
- AES Indiana provides the funding for the trees, as well as program promotion.
- DPW/Indy Parks maintains the trees to ensure viability and survivability.
- Keep Indianapolis Beautiful, Inc. orders trees and manages the community tree plantings by providing the staff and coordinating the efforts of volunteers to plant the trees.
Program goals:
- Significantly increase plantings of public trees in Indianapolis (and surrounding AES Indiana service areas).
- Provide care to those trees to enhance their longevity.
- Educate the public about the importance of trees to our quality of life; planting the Right Tree in the Right Place.
