Our Trees are Dying!
These trees are slowly dying because the English ivy steals their water and nutrients, rots their bark, can cause them to topple, and can block their sunlight.
Our Mission is to Save the Trees in the City of Annapolis and Anne Arundel County
We remove the English ivy and invasive vines that are destroying our canopy trees and forests.
Trees Saved This Season
11,760 Trees Saved Since 2022
Getting Back into the Woods!
Save Our Trees is excited to get back into the woods and save more trees! We have set a goal of 5,000 additional trees saved and maintained (trees previously saved on which the ivy is growing back) this season. This will bring our total to more than 15,000 trees saved.
We Did It!
Alongside our amazing volunteers, we surpassed our goals of freeing 5000 trees from English ivy and other invasive vines in our first two years and of saving 5000 more trees in our third year.
