MyDNR,<\/a> Indiana’s Outdoor Newsletter<\/em>: The Indiana Natural Resources Foundation, in partnership with the Division of Forestry, is planning another busy year for the Indiana Tree Project. In 2022, more than 11,000 trees were added to Indiana\u2019s public lands through Indiana Tree Project plantings, and this year is expected to be another successful year.<\/p>\n

Through a partnership with the Division of Forestry, we are helping Indiana\u2019s forests grow, one tree at a time, with the Indiana Tree Project<\/a>. Healthy forests in Indiana promote wildlife habitats, clean air and an abundance of outdoor recreation opportunities. It is estimated that 85 percent of Indiana was once forested. Today, only 19 percent of the state is forested. The Indiana Tree Project is much more than just planting trees. Through this project we are adding new acreage to Indiana\u2019s State Forests and we\u2019re trying to add 1,000 acres of new forested land.<\/p>\n

When you support the Indiana Tree Project, we provide you with an official tree certificate to demonstrate your support for the smart management of Hoosier forests. It includes the coordinates for the acre on which your tree is, or will be, planted.<\/p>\n
