Green Initiatives




Plant a tree in our neighborhood for MillionTreesNYC!


"MillionTreesNYC is a initiative to plant and care for one million new trees across the City's five boroughs over the next decade. By planting one million trees, New York City can increase its urban forest—our most valuable environmental asset made up of street trees, park trees, and trees on public, private and commercial land—by an astounding 20%, while achieving the many quality-of-life benefits that come with planting trees. The City of New York will plant 70% of trees in parks and other public spaces. The other 30% will come from private organizations, homeowners, and community organizations." 
At Saint Ann's high school in Brooklyn Heights we care for all of the trees surrounding our block using soil from our schools compost. We feel this is a great way to kick start green initiatives not only at Saint Ann's but also all over the city and country!

Greenly yours,
