🌳🔎 Out in the field for tree inventory with our apprentices!

With the BRG Team and Baton Roots Apprentices, inventory isn’t just about counting trees, it’s also a chance for apprentices to sharpen those arborist skills! Today’s lesson? Learning how to spot included bark and CODIT in action. 👀🌿

Included bark can create a weak point where branches or stems meet, while CODIT (Compartmentalization of Decay in Trees) is one of the ways trees respond to injury and contain decay.

Every tree has a story, and knowing what to look for helps us better understand and care for the urban forest. 🌳💚

The BRGreenTeam is excited to shine a spotlight on Site Companies! 🌳✨

Site Companies, LLC. became a Living Roadways sponsor in 2024, supporting the planting and care of trees along our community’s roadways. They continued that commitment in 2025 as a Canopy Level sponsor for our event, helping us raise critical funds to grow and care for our urban forest! 💚

And there’s a fun little piece of history we couldn’t leave out! Their office at 336 Louisiana Avenue sits in downtown Baton Rouge on the courtyard square. This is a building that was once owned by one of Baton Rouge Green’s founding members, David Ellison Sr. So, in a way, there’s been a pretty long-running connection between BRG and 336 Louisiana Avenue, dating all the way back to 1987! 🌿🏙️

Thank you, Site Companies, for sustaining your investment for a greener Baton Rouge. We’re grateful to have you growing with us!

Water + Mulch = Happy Trees! 🌳💚💚

Front Yard Bikes have always been great stewards of food accessibility, and we love helping them make their agroforestry canopy better!

With Louisiana heat in full force, those simple steps can make a big difference in helping trees stay healthy and thrive!

When it comes to urban trees, more isn’t always better!!

Three strong, mature trees can provide soo much more shade, cooling, stormwater benefits, and habitat than 30 small, struggling trees. 🌳

Building a stronger urban canopy means planting with the future in mind! This means giving trees the space, soil, and care they need to grow healthy, thrive, and benefit our communities for generations. 💚

We’ve all felt it in Baton Rouge. You turn the corner onto a shaded street, and suddenly the walk gets a whole lot more enjoyable. 🌳☀️

That’s the Urban Heat Island Effect in action! But tree-lined streets stay cooler, making everyday activities like walking the dog, biking to work, waiting at the bus stop, or simply getting the mail a little more comfortable.

As our city continues to grow, so does the importance of protecting and expanding our tree canopy! More trees don’t just make Baton Rouge look greener, they help create healthier neighborhoods, reduce dangerous heat, and make our streets more livable for everyone. 😊

Cooling Baton Rouge starts with growing our canopy. 🌿

Some things are just meant to be seen in IMAX. 🌳🎬

Zoom out, and you’ll notice who’s really carrying the scene. 👀👀

The trees lining our streets are quietly cooling pavement, protecting our roads from extreme heat, and making every drive a little more comfortable.

Sometimes, the best part of the picture is just outside the frame!
