Bucks Beautifulʼs RePlant Bucks initiative began in 2018 as a direct result of accumulated effects over the past decade of disease, invasive insects and storm damage on Bucks County’s aging tree canopy. As this has been devastating to witness, we are committed to lead the way in facilitating the reforestation of our local communities. The goal of RePlant Bucks is the planting of 10,000 new trees throughout Bucks County. Partnering with local nurseries and landscapers, 2,528 trees have already been installed in 47 locations throughout the County. The reforestation will ultimately consist of native oaks, tulips, poplars, evergreens, sugar maples, shagbark hickories, chestnuts and red maples.
To apply for a matching RePlant Bucks grant, please request a grant application via email to grants@bucksbeautiful.org. Application deadlines are March 31st for Spring and August 31st for Fall.

Invasive Insects Affecting Our Trees
The Spotted Lanternfly is a threat to several important crops including grapes, peaches and timber trees. Â Every landowner who effectively uses control measures will help to reduce the potential for this insect to spread to new territory. Â They have plagued PA since 2016, and the damage and expense is exorbitant. Click below to learn how to stop this destructive pest.
