The Cuyahoga County Healthy Urban Tree Canopy (HUTC) Program for 2025 was officially announced on Arbor Day, April 25. This marks the sixth year of the Healthy Urban Tree Canopy Program, with over 11,000 new trees planted in Cuyahoga County since the inception of the program. This also marks a change in program administration of the HUTC Program from County Planning to the Cuyahoga Soil & Water Conservation District (Soil & Water).

In its fifth round of funding, Cuyahoga County will invest $1 million into its tree canopy by providing financial support for 18 projects for tree plans and tree planting sponsored by area municipalities, neighborhoods, and nonprofits through the Cuyahoga County Healthy Urban Tree Canopy (HUTC) Grant Program.

With More Than 10,000 Trees Planted Through First Four Rounds, Impact to Continue Across County
