Dixie Fire Canopy Project

08/04/2026

Five years ago today, the Dixie Fire forever changed Greenville and so many surrounding communities. We lost homes, forests, businesses, and places filled with memories, but we never lost our hope.

Over the last five years, we've witnessed something incredible: neighbors helping neighbors, communities coming together, and countless acts of kindness proving that resilience grows even in the hardest seasons.

Today, we remember what was lost, celebrate how far we've come, and look forward to the day our communities are whole again and filled with new memories.

Here's to resilience. Here's to hope. And here's to continuing to grow together. 🌱💚

FREE TREES COMING TO DIXIE FIRE-AFFECTED COMMUNITIES! 🌳

The Dixie Fire Canopy Project is excited to announce that we have received 550 beautiful trees to distribute throughout communities impacted by the Dixie Fire!

Thanks to the incredible generosity of the Arbor Day Foundation and Subaru of America, Inc., residents will have the opportunity to receive free trees to help restore the greenery, shade, and beauty that was lost during the fire.

Available species include:
-Green Shadow Magnolias
-Southern Magnolias
-Redbuds
-Snowbell Trees

To ensure these trees reach the communities most impacted by the Dixie Fire, we will be dividing the inventory as evenly as possible among:

-Warner Valley
-Canyon Dam
-Indian Falls
-Greenville
-Genesee Valley
-Rich Bar and communities throughout the Feather River Canyon

We will be announcing specific distribution dates and locations for each community soon, so stay tuned! Please reach out with any questions specific to your location.

IMPORTANT: Valid proof of address will be required to receive a tree. This helps us ensure these trees are being planted within the fire-affected communities they were intended to serve.

Please join us in thanking the Arbor Day Foundation and Subaru of America for making this opportunity possible and for investing in the long-term recovery of the communities affected by the Dixie Fire.

Together, we're putting the green back into Greenville and surrounding communities, one tree at a time. 💚🌲🌳

Thank you to the Feather River Food Co-op for the Round Up At The Register grant. The community really came through with their small donations. Every time you round up at the register at the Co-Op, it's going towards a wonderful, local initiative. We are blessed to be a part of such a caring community.

Our April "Round-up at the Register" in Quincy resulted in $745.96 raised by the community for the Dixie Fire Canopy Project. We would like to thank the community fo stepping up to help support this important work. For more information, please see their website: https://dixiefirecanopyproject.org/

We had a wonderful time planting coniferous seedlings on Mount Hough with an incredible group of people. It's going to take help from everyone to restore it all, so please sign up for future events like these. But the turnout was incredible.

What an incredible day for Greenville! 🌳💚

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who came out to support our recent Dixie Fire Canopy Project planting day and tree giveaway event for the beautification of Main Street Greenville and the new Cy Hall Memorial Museum. Seeing community members take home trees to help restore the greenery and beauty of Main Street was truly inspiring.

We also want to give a special thank you to the dedicated members of the Cy Hall Memorial Museum for all of their hard work planting trees and shrubs around the museum property. Your commitment to rebuilding and beautifying Greenville does not go unnoticed, and we are honored to be part of this project alongside you.

Most importantly, thank you to California ReLeaf , Pacific Gas and Electric Company , CAL FIRE , and U.S. Forest Service for making this project possible through the Growing Green Communities Grant. Because of your support, we are continuing to put the green back into Greenville one tree at a time. 🌲🌳

We are so grateful for every volunteer, supporter, and community member who helped make this event a success. The future of Greenville is growing greener and brighter, together.

We’re excited to share that the Dixie Fire Canopy Project has been awarded a Growing Green Communities grant through California ReLeaf! 🌱

To celebrate, we’re hosting a Tree Planting & Tree Distribution Event right here in Greenville!

📍 Location: The Spot
📅 Date: May 9
⏰ Time: 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

We’ll be planting trees at the new Cy Hall Memorial Museum in Greenville and giving away one tree per Main Street property to help bring shade, beauty, and life back to our downtown.

This is a small but meaningful step in continuing to rebuild and re-green our community.

We also want to give a big thank you to our event sponsor, Pacific Gas and Electric Company, for helping make this possible through their support of the Growing Green Communities program.

We’d love for the community to come out, say hello, and be part of this day together.

If you own property on Main Street, come grab your tree!
If you just want to be part of supporting the effort, we’d love to have you there too.

Let’s keep putting the green back in Greenville!

Join us on May 16th for a day of hands-on restoration and community connection.

Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship is hosting their Quincy Mountain Epic, and the Dixie Fire Canopy Project will be assisting with tree planting as part of the event.

We’re looking for volunteers to help restore the canopy lost in the 2021 Dixie Fire, one tree at a time. It’s a chance to give back, get outside, and be part of something that will benefit one of our favorite recreation sites in Plumas County.

For the tree planting crew:
Meet at the fairgrounds by 8:30 AM
We’ll finish around 2:00 PM

No experience needed. Just show up ready to help. Let’s rebuild the canopy, together.
