**What you get:** 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.

**When:** Planting in spring and autumn in four districts each time (about 600 trees per planting period)

**For:** Homeowners, Renters, Businesses, Community groups

> Note: The Senate page states donations are suspended 'auf unbestimmte Zeit' (indefinitely) from November 2026 while planting continues from state funds. Check the page for any reopening.
