CONCORD — New Hampshire schools that would like to add trees to their campuses are encouraged to apply to participate in the 2025 Schoolyard Canopy Enhancement Program, which is managed by the N.H. Division of Forests and Lands’ Urban and Community Forestry Program.

“When we started this program in 2023, our hope was not only to provide trees to schools that needed them, but also to get students thinking about how trees benefit their lives every day,” said A.J. Dupere, urban forester at the N.H. Division of Forests and Lands. “What we’ve experienced far exceeded our goals, with students really taking ownership of the process and saying how they look forward to visiting ‘their trees’ in years to come.”
