Abstract

Treekeepers of Washington County is a group of community members working to protect and advocate for trees in urban Washington County. As part of this mission, we have undertaken an effort to map and measure street trees throughout the County’s unincorporated urban neighborhoods. We trained teams of volunteers to collect field measurements and enter data into the i-Tree Eco application, which uses peer-reviewed models to calculate these trees’ contributions to human health, wellbeing, and prosperity. We are reporting on the results of our first year of data collection in 2022, and our strategic plan for 2023 with a focus on environmental equity and areas of greatest need.
