Join Hillsborough County Extension Service for Tree Quest 2026 to learn more about local greenery
Friday, Jan. 16, is Florida Arbor Day, which celebrates the expansive forests throughout the state. You can join the celebration by participating in Tree Quest, an exciting opportunity to become acquainted with the greenery you see every day.
Participants will embark on a quest to discover unique trees, learn fascinating facts about Florida's trees, and participate in a chance to win tree-themed prizes - all while enjoying the beauty of Hillsborough's local parks.
Visit, scan, submit for a chance to win prizes
Participating is easy. Simply visit any of the 13 participating Hillsborough County parks, scan the QR codes on tagged trees, and submit a short questionnaire. By doing so, you're entered to win exciting tree-themed prizes, such as gift cards to local nurseries, class passes, and Florida tree ID books, among others!
Take to the trees during Tree Quest! The event runs through Feb. 4.
