Friends engages our community in enhancing our city’s parks, trees, and green spaces through volunteerism, park activation, philanthropy, and urban forestry.
Every area of our work increases access to nature while empowering Grand Rapids residents to shape their green spaces.
Join our community of volunteers and partners making a lasting impact on Grand Rapids’ green spaces through volunteering, education, and advocacy.
From planting trees to volunteering, Friends offers opportunities that help make our city greener and bring us closer together!
UPDATE: Due to inclement weather, we’re canceling Luminaria tonight. The trail and parking lot is very icy. Our community’s safety always comes first, so hopefully we’ll see you at our Huff Park Luminaria next year when the weather is better.
