Our City Forest (OCF) has partnered with the City of Gilroy to provide free trees to eligible residents. Use the map below to check your eligibility.
If you are ready to get your free yard or park strip tree, submit a Tree Interest Form below. OCF will send a staff member out to make sure that we plant the right tree for your space. We will process your permits, provide your tree and teach you how to plant and care for your tree.
Let’s grow a greener Gilroy, together!
