Since 2009, we have planted 10 varieties of cherry trees. We plan to continue planting a variety of cherry trees at our site in North Park. It costs about $800 to have a young cherry tree planted by a professional, and about $400 to have the tree planted by PSP volunteers at our fall planting day. This figure includes the tree, mulch, tools, and future tree care costs.

Tree planting takes place on the first Saturday of November every year. Besides general donations, we accept donations to cover specific tree plantings such as memorial trees for loved ones, or as commemorative trees to honor people or occasions such as weddings, school entrances, and graduations. If you are interested in having a tree planted in someone's memory or as a commemoration, please contact us by email (sakurapghboard@gmail.com) to check on availability and to discuss arrangements. Generally, we request a minimum donation of $400 to cover costs.

For donors of memorial and commemorative trees:  please note that once the tree is planted in North Park, the tree belongs to Allegheny County's North Park. Therefore, names or plaques cannot be placed on or near the tree. However, you can visit and view the tree any time you like. If you want to care for a tree that you had planted, please become a volunteer with our tree maintenance program. Private individuals are not allowed to care for the trees on their own.
