Welcome to San Antonio’s Tree Resource Hub!

San Antonio loves trees—so much so that we’re the only city in Texas recognized as a Tree City of the World! We’re also proud to be designated as a Tree City USA, a testament to our ongoing commitment to a greener, healthier city. From towering oaks to swaying palms, our urban forest is part of what makes San Antonio so special.

Trees shade our streets, cool our parks, clean our air, and bring a little extra beauty to everyday life. And the best part? You’re part of it! Whether you’re planting a new sapling, caring for a heritage oak, or simply enjoying a shady spot on a hot day, you’re helping San Antonio stay green and thriving.

This page is your go-to for all things trees—resources, tips, and ways to get involved. Want to know more about what we do and why trees matter? Check out the video below to see how we’re growing a greener future together!
