|| Shade Tree Home || Upcoming Events || Getting Involved || History || About Us || Permit Info || Contact Us || About UsThe Factoryville Shade Tree Commission is an all volunteer group of Factoryville citizens that are involved with the care and expansion of the urban forest of our community. We are always looking for more volunteers. If you can help with our efforts in any way, please join us. It is with great sadness that we learn of the passing of Mr. Ed Saar. Ed volunteered for the Shade Tree Commission for the last several years, he would gladly dig holes, deliver mulch, help with park work, it is because of great volunteers like this we have beautiful trees and parks.We will miss you Mr. Saar!
Our Programs The work of the Factoryville Shade Tree Commission is only possible because of the dedicated civic organizations of Factoryville:
These dedicated volunteers have been the heart of the transformation of our town and park. The Factoryville Shade Tree Commission has finished ten community grants. We have received funding from DEP, The Pennsylvania Forestry Council, Northern Tier, Wyoming County located in Towanda, and The Forestry Service.

Come and visit the park and see all of the new trees and landscaping.
