Creek ReLeaf Program
Volunteers planting trees     Plant a tree!

Through Creek ReLeaf, trees are planted in riparian areas (in floodplains and stream buffers) of Mecklenburg County.

Creek ReLeaf is a collaborative effort of Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services, the Charlotte Public Tree Fund, the Center for Sustainability at Central Piedmont Community College, the Sierra Club - Central Piedmont Group, dedicated volunteers and financial supporters. 
A big thanks to the 420 volunteers who helped with the Creek ReLeaf on November 17, 2012. In just a few hours, they planted nearly 1,800 trees along Irwin Creek in west Charlotte.

Since 2008, volunteers have planted nearly 11,000 tree seedlings in Charlotte-Mecklenburg's Briar Creek, Irwin Creek, Little Sugar Creek and McDowell Creek watersheds
