RNeighbors recognizes active citizens and their families are more likely to thrive in a healthy environment.

RNeighborWoods in Rochester improves the appearance, safety, energy efficiency, and value of neighborhoods citywide with boulevard trees.

Since 2004, RNeighborWoods has been working with partners, neighborhood by neighborhood, to plan, plant, and manage trees, in order to catalyze city-wide improvement on Rochester’s urban forest. With enthusiastic support from the City Forester, NeighborWoods has trained 115 residents in the Citizen Forester Program, and planted and maintained over 850 trees throughout the community. These trees have an initial combined value of over $150,000, and a mature planted value of about $1.5 million.
