Welcome!

The Florida Urban Forestry Council (FUFC) is a statewide, non-profit organization with a diverse membership of municipalities, arborists, utility foresters, community tree board members, tree advocates, volunteers, horticulturists, landscape professionals, and interested citizens who care about trees in their communities.

Well-managed trees are a vital part of the urban environment and enhance the quality of life in our cities, towns and communities. The Florida Urban Forestry Council strives to educate the citizens of Florida on the importance of trees, including their benefits, as well as the best methods to plant, maintain, manage, preserve, and sustain the urban forest.
