Grant Number
08-DG-011420004-333

University Green will create and document replicable models of urban forestry partnerships between universities and their surrounding community. The project will use UC Green, a successful existing model, to refine, adapt and replicate the model at selected institutions. The results will be documented for statewide and national replication. Pennsylvania Horticultural Society will lead this effort with the assistance of UC Green, Penn State School of Forestry and University of Pennsylvania Netter Center for Community Partnerships. Results include improved quality of life, university-community relations, added stewardship by students and residents and a more sustainable local urban forestry program.
