Roots Revival Gibson Park
The Roots Revival Committee is working with the City Forester and City Parks Manager to secure a variety of trees offering sound barriers, a canopy, drought tolerance, fall color, and distinguishing features like cones, needles and leaf shape to be replanted in Gibson Park.
The committee is asking for full tree costs to get an additional 14 trees planted in Gibson Park. 35 trees were sponsored by citizens and organizations in and around Great Falls in the 2024-2025 winter for a spring planting in Gibson Park.
The additional 14 trees' costs and sizes per tree are below.
