WESTFIELD — The Greening the Gateway Cities tree planting program, formerly confined to downtown sections of wards 2 and 3, is expanding its eligible planting zone to encompass all environmental justice neighborhoods in Westfield, increasing the area where trees may be planted for free.
In a letter to the city on May 2, Tree Planting Program Manager Hilary Dimino said her office and the Department of Conservation and Recreation were “excited for this opportunity to increase the number of residents served by this program and look forward to continuing our partnership with the city of Westfield.”
