Five best practices for a thriving, equity-driven urban tree canopy

Dig Studio was featured in the November 2022 issue of Park and Recreation Magazine outlining steps that cities can take to collaboration and accountability, secure appropriate funding and partnerships, and ultimately build the framework for a more equitable canopy that benefits all residents. Recognizing the growing imperative to better understand and support a healthy, equitable canopy for the community, the city and county of Denver engaged nationally-recognized landscape architecture, urban planning and design firms Dig Studio and Design Workshop, along with master’s program students from the University of Colorado, to conduct research into best practices for enhancing equitable and sustainable outcomes in urban forestry.
