Pittsburgh to Get New Trees

TreeVitalize Pittsburgh will be planting over 100 hundred trees this weekend in East Liberty. The planting is a part of a 20,000 tree multi year planting effort designed to increase tree cover and green space in the city. TreeVitalize is a new group that was created in the spring and is modeled after a Philadelphia project of the same name. TreeVitalize will take care of the trees in the first few years with the city taking on the responsibilities later.
