Rutgers Tree Planting Festival

Please join us on April 18, 2026, for the Rutgers Tree Planting Festival, where we will be planting 3000 trees in the footprint of an abandoned roadway that was removed last year by Rutgers Institutional Planning and Operations. This will be the first Miyawaki Forest on the Rutgers University campus.

The goal of this event is to build community by collectively contributing to the environment and giving students first-hand experience in tree planting. There will be music, art, and food.

This event is open to all members of the Rutgers community and the public.
