TreeFolks has been planting trees in Austin and Central Texas since 1988 in an effort to grow our canopy, fight the urban heat island effect, mitigate climate change, and build community. We partner with the City of Austin, Travis County, other governmental entities, non-profits, school and park groups, and neighborhood organizations in this collaborative reforestation effort.

We are seeking committed, energetic individuals who are passionate about creating a greener community through planting and caring for trees to join our Board of Directors!

This is an exciting time to live in Central Texas. Like the broader community, TreeFolks is poised for dramatic growth in coming years. The need is great and time is short. This is a fantastic opportunity for people to have a positive impact and to grow with us.

While the TreeFolks staff leads the day-to-day operations, we seek to round out our board of directors with members who have good connections to the communities that we serve, and an ability to network and provide assistance with fundraising.
