Give trees some love
Why we ❤ trees
Trees improve air quality, lower stress, boost moods, reduce crime, and improve home values. They also lower heating and cooling costs, reduce stormwater runoff, and remove the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
Request a free tree
Massachusetts offers free trees to residents of two neighborhoods in Quincy: Germantown and North Quincy.
You can also request a free tree from the City of Quincy.
Pests to look out for
If you see any of these insects on trees in Quincy, take photos if possible and email Mike Cassinelli, Project Manager and Urban Forester for the Department of Natural Resources..
