Heritage Trees

The trees that were already here

Before LVAS plants a single new tree, we document and protect the mature trees already giving Southern Nevada neighborhoods their canopy.

The Heritage Tree Registry identifies, maps, and advocates for legacy trees at risk from development, drought stress, or removal.
