Thank you! We are TreeFolks, a nonprofit in Austin, TX. We started over 35 years ago with four friends who wanted to plant trees to fight deforestation. 3+ million trees, we continue providing free trees for households, planting trees in riparian areas, and fighting canopy inequity.

Tom Spencer will always be a legend.
He was such a remarkable person and so kind! He was the legendary host of Central Texas Gardner on PBS.
You will be greatly missed Tom.
Rest in peace. 🪦 🌸
