Have your say and help grow our city canopy

26 November 2024

Planting trees in Hobart and our surrounding suburbs has never been more important.

A strong and healthy urban tree canopy is essential for a healthy and resilient city.

That’s why the City of Hobart is developing a new urban tree strategy and encouraging more people to plant trees in their own gardens.

 We want people to plant a tree today for a brighter future tomorrow, create a more climate resilient city and help grow Hobart’s urban tree canopy.

 Urban trees, whether planted on our streets, in people’s gardens or in our parks improve air quality and reduce flooding.

 Urban trees are also becoming increasingly important as shade providers and to help fend off hotter temperatures in the city and our suburbs as the climate warms.

Have your say

Tell us what is important to you and help us create a new urban tree strategy for Hobart.

The survey results will be used to inform the development of a new urban tree strategy.

Visit the Your Say Hobart website to help guide the direction of our new urban tree strategy.
