Urban Forest Plan Community Workshop — Forest Park (Queens)

Published: May 4, 2025; Aithor: Julia Sonrisa

NYC’s forests play an important role in the health, safety, and sustainability of our communities—providing clean air, reducing extreme heat, improving mental health, and creating habitat for wildlife. As we work to create a long-term vision for protecting and expanding these natural areas, we want to hear from you!

• Learn about NYC’s Urban Forest Plan and why it matters
• Explore the unique ecological history of Forest Park and your borough’s forests
• Provide input that will directly inform the Urban Forest Plan and its priorities
• Share your experiences and ideas to help shape the future of NYC’s natural areas
• Connect with neighbors, community groups, and environmental leaders
