Mission and programs · 2024

Primary exempt purpose

Arboretum Detroits mission is to establish and maintain a public arboretum that demonstrates reforesting Detroits landscape with stands of trees that highlight their form and diversity, and to educate about the cultural, ecological, aesthetic, and economic role that trees play in the lives of people locally and globally.

    Expenses $47,300 · Grants $18,500

  • Maintaining the arboretum requires ongoing work. This year we kept parcels free of garbage, mowed andweeded. We watered trees and saplings and several native flower gardens throughout the season.

    Expenses $29,500 · Grants $29,000

  • Our mission to educate and engage the community is fulfilled through educational programming, our Win Win Tree Program, educational signage, and Volunteer engagement opportunities
