Free
Miami-Dade County’s Adopt-a-Tree program provides single-family and duplex homeowners with up to two free trees every year. Since the program’s inception in 2001, more than 250,000 trees have been distributed throughout Miami-Dade County.
Residents are invited to attend our 2026 Adopt-a-Tree events:
- Sunday, July 19: FIU Biscayne Bay Campus, 3000 NE 151 St., North Miami, FL 33181
The events run from 8:30–11:30 a.m. Trees are available on a first come, first served basis. Pre-registration does not guarantee tree availability but does verify eligibility. Sign up here to receive Adopt-a-Tree email updates.
Benefits of adopting and planting a tree:
- Reduces air-conditioning costs by providing shade
- Improves a home’s appearance, which can help to increase a property’s real estate value
- Provides a natural habitat for wildlife
- Reduces flooding by absorbing excess rainwater and increasing infiltration
- Removes significant amounts of carbon dioxide from the air, which reduces the impact on climate change
