🌳 Fun Fact Friday! 🌿

Ever noticed how some streets feel cooler and greener than others? A lot of that has to do with tree canopy cover! 🌳

Tree canopy doesn't just make our neighborhoods beautiful. It helps keep our streets cooler, improves air quality, and creates healthier spaces for everyone.

But here's the thing: not every neighborhood in Buffalo enjoys the same amount of tree cover, and we're working to change that! πŸ’š

πŸƒ Swipe to learn more about canopy cover and why it matters.

Want to help close the gap? Request your FREE street tree today at www.buffalotrees.org 🌱

It's ! 🌳

You've probably seen it: mulch piled high around a tree like a little volcano. πŸŒ‹ It looks cozy for winter, but it's doing more harm than good. Mulch against the trunk traps moisture, invites rot and pests, and can weaken your tree over time.

The fix is easy: spread mulch in a flat ring 2–3 inches deep and pull it back a few inches from the trunk. Think donut, not volcano. 🍩

Help your street tree make it through a Buffalo winter. πŸ’š
