Thursday, April 23rd, 2026 -- 8:00 AM

(Wisconsin Radio Network) Wisconsin is reporting big gains in its statewide tree‑planting push.

According to the Wisconsin Radio Network, Wisconsin’s latest Trillion Trees Pledge report shows the state planted nearly 12 million trees and conserved more than seventy‑eight hundred acres of forestland in 2025.

That brings the total to more than 54 million trees planted since 2021, already more than halfway to the state’s 2030 goal. The Department of Natural Resources supplied over four and a half million seedlings last year, with millions more planted through public, private, and community partners.

The state is on track for another strong year of tree planting in 2026.
