The Iron Mountain Downtown Development Authority, in partnership with the City of Iron Mountain Tree Board, is working to restore the trees in the heart of Downtown. In the past few years, invasive Emerald Ash-borer and environmental stressors killed 15-20 trees planted in Downtown. We’re excited to announce that the non-profit Friends of the Iron Mountain DDA recently received a $20,000 grant from The Toro Company Greenspace Enhancement Grant Program to help make this project happen in spring 2025!
The total cost of replacing 15-20 trees is $30,000. This cost includes site preparation, planting, and tree maintenance. To raise the remaining $10,000 needed to propel this project forward, we invite local businesses, citizens, and organizations to consider making a donation. All proceeds will go towards supplementing The Toro Company Greenspace Enhancement Grant Program grant. Please see the Downtown Trees page for more details and to donate. No donation is too small! Follow us on the DDA Facebook page for more project updates.
