Email your favourite tree

Each one of Newcastle's Urban Forest trees contributes to the liveability and sustainability of our city. They are unique individuals and all of the trees on our streets and in our parks have a unique number! We call it an asset ID and it helps us keep information on each tree, including what species of tree and when it was planted.

See if you can find your special tree on our Tree Map!

What species is it? Roughly how old is it? What's its asset ID? Once you find it on the map you'll also see the tree has it's very own email address so you can drop it a line to say how much you appreciate it.

Our trees love receiving emails like these from Newcastle residents:

"For more than 7 years you and I have shared this block of land. I have enjoyed the shade you bring to our home, the shelter you bring to the animals and insects and the cool beauty you bring to the street. We all love you and thank you for your contribution to our environment."

" I hope you are doing well, I love your hair cut who did it for you? Maybe you should get some nice tree friends, because no offence to your neighbour, but he has been kind of grumpy lately… something about too many birds that keep on nesting on his head."

City of Newcastle acknowledges that we operate on the grounds of the traditional country of the Awabakal and Worimi peoples.
We recognise and respect their cultural heritage, beliefs and continuing relationship with the land, and that they are the proud survivors of more than two hundred years of dispossession.
CN reiterates its commitment to address disadvantages and attain justice for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of this community.
