Boston Urban Forest Coalition
Boston’s Urban Forest Coalition (BUFC) is a coalition of non-profit, city, state, and federal organizations working to transform Boston’s urban forest in order to improve the urban forest ecosystem, public health, and quality of life for Boston’s residents. UEI is a founding member and has served as the chair of the coalition since its inception. BUFC has provided a space for both organizations whose missions are directly related to urban and community forestry (such as non-profits like UEI and Earthworks and government entities like the City’s Parks and Recreation Department and the State Department of Conservation and Recreation), as well as those groups who have a more tangential interest in the urban forest and its benefits (such as the Dorchester Environmental Health Coalition) to work together on planting projects, educational initiatives and advocacy efforts.
