What We Offer

Legacy Tree Program Services for Your Property

Tree planting service in Austin, TX

How It Works

We plant a native Texas sapling in your yard to commemorate a special moment — a birth or adoption, a first home, the life of a loved one or pet, an anniversary, a retirement, or any other moment worth rooting in the ground.

The Details

We provide a 1–5 gallon sapling and professional installation. Species options include Live Oak, Cedar Elm, Texas Mountain Laurel, and Pecan. We plant during the recommended season (late fall through early spring) and help select a suitable location based on species and site conditions.

What Sets Us Apart

Why Plant a Legacy Tree?

A planted tree is one of the most generous gifts you can give. It outlives the moment it commemorates, returns oxygen and shade to your neighborhood for decades, and gives the next generation of your family a living place to gather.

We use only native Central Texas species because they’re built for this climate — they require less water, support more local wildlife, and are far more likely to be standing on the property a hundred years from now than a fashion-of-the-month nursery import.

And because we install it personally, we know it’s planted at the right depth, in the right spot, with the right care plan to actually survive its critical first year. That’s the difference between a tree you remember and a tree that becomes part of your family’s story.
