LBWID Residential Tree Replacement Program

See LBA's Policy Regarding Trees.

For approximately 20 years, the LBWID and LBA financially co-sponsored this program, run primarily by volunteers, starting with Betsy Washington, and later, Elaine Lindstrom. As often happens with successful programs that are originally administered by volunteers, they grow and require more time and attention than what was initially needed to keep it going. But the program is back, and starting in 2024 and onward, with agreement from the LBA, the LBWID will solely fund the program and LBWID staff will administer it.

The LBWID uses LBA's Constant Contact email system and posting information on the LBWID's website (www.lakebarcroftwid.com). The process is to receive request submissions in July and then plant the trees in late September or early October. The program will give away 25 native trees (6 ft to 8 ft tall) to Lake Barcroft residents that may have recently lost a tree or who have an open location on their property.  LBWID will have a professional landscaper plant the tree, and the recipient of the trees must water and care for the tree that they receive. Those who apply for a tree and do not receive one are sincerely invited to apply again the following year. If you have any questions regarding the program this year, please reach out to lbwid@vacoxmail.com or you can call the office directly at 703-820-1300.
