Our Story

300 Trees was originally founded to save 300 trees that were threatened by a project in Bellevue. Although we were not successful in that effort, we were subsequently inspired to help rebuild the Eastside’s tree canopy by planting new trees.

We began as branch of the environmental group 350 Eastside, a chapter of the global environmental movement 350.org. We are now an independent 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

We work in conjunction with Bellevue and many other partners to enhance our community and the environment on which we all depend.  We expect to leave the Eastside as beautiful as we found it to delight future generations.

We appreciate your willingness to help us achieve this vision. One tree at a time.
