The Natural Landmarks of Red Hook, NY

Research

Future Green summer interns, Madeline Forbes and Rachel Peterson, created a beautiful guide to the landmark trees of Red Hook during the course of their time with us. The goal of the neighborhood trees guide was to cultivate stewardship of Red Hook’s urban forest and possibly influence the types and numbers of trees planted with the hopes that it can become a more robust and functional part of the urban fabric. Part historical fiction, part educational mapping tool - these guides will be printed and shared with the public for ongoing engagement around tree planting and stewardship.
