The West Lafayette Tree Friends is a volunteer organization dedicated to protecting our City's trees and greenspaces They plant shade trees along public streets of the City, organize seasonal street tree pruning to ensure tree branches grow above roadways and sidewalks and complete one or two large planting projects under their Operation Re-leaf tree planting program each year

Founded in 1981, West Lafayette Tree Friends was established by adopting the original West Lafayette Trees and Landscape Ordinance. They work in cooperation with the City and property owners to enhance the beauty of the streets in West Lafayette by pruning and planting trees.

Private donations and grants finance all West Lafayette Tree Friends' initiatives. The West Lafayette Tree Friends meet on the second Tuesday of every month for Tree Friends business These monthly meetings are open to the public Sub-committees for the organization meet throughout the month Everyone is welcome to join
