Welcome to the Florida Urban Forestry Council!
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.

TREE BENEFITS CALCULATOR
American Forests’ Tree Equity Score Calculator
Tree Equity Score calculates a score for all 150,000 neighborhoods and 486 municipalities in urbanized areas across the continental United States — cities and nearby small towns that have at least 50,000 people. More than 70% of the U.S. population lives in these urban places, which means the tool is wide-reaching.
