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 us for community events, hands-on classes, ArborFest, and Neighborwoods — there’s always something happening to bring New Castle together.
Grab a friend and help us plant more trees in Grand Rapids! Locations are chosen closer to the day of planting, so sign up and keep an eye on your email for details!
