Green Newton Covid-19 Memorial Trees 4C Project: Plant Trees to Honor Those Who Lost Their Lives

The goals of the 4C Tree Project (Capture Carbon Commemorate Covid) are to provide a beautiful living memorial to neighbors lost to Covid-19, remind us of our need to care for each other, and help mitigate the negative impacts of climate change by planting trees.

The city forester has purchased 170 trees to go in parks, schools, and streets across Newton this Spring. We hope that the Newton community will come together to help fund these trees and show that we care. Please donate at www.greennewton.org/trees. You can add a note to the donor scroll and mention your school, club or membership affiliation. Also follow the progress of this memorial on instagram @4ctreeproject.
