Stadtbäume für Berlin (Stadtbaumkampagne)
🇩🇪 Berlin, BE, Germany · Senatsverwaltung für Mobilität, Verkehr, Klimaschutz und Umwelt, Berlin
Donations toward new street trees (500 euros funded one tree, the state paid the rest) are suspended indefinitely since November 2026; planting continues
A Berlin Senate campaign launched on 7 November 2012 with the districts to plant extra street trees and narrow the gap between felled and replaced trees. Residents could donate any amount; once 500 euros was collected for a tree the state budget covered the remaining cost (about 3,000 euros per tree including roughly three years of care), and each campaign tree got a sign for about three years. The campaign reports around 19,000 new street trees and about 3.47 million euros in donations by 2026.
Who qualifies
Anyone could donate; small amounts were pooled into collective donations. Tree species are set by the district offices, not the donor.
How to apply
No donations are currently accepted. The last donation window, for the autumn 2026 planting, ran 1 May to 15 September 2026; since November 2026 donations are suspended indefinitely and none can be made for the spring 2027 planting. Contact: stadtbaum@senmvku.berlin.de.
