Regional Growning Out Station

The Regional Growing Out Station, located in Walter B. Jacobs Nature Park, is a partnership between Shreveport Green, the National Tree Trust, and Caddo Parish. Over 8,000 trees of native species are available for outplanting on public land. Interested groups or individuals sign a contract agreeing to maintain the trees for three years and are responsible for an annual report during that period. Shreveport Green encourages interested "tree stewards" from all over the region to consider the RGO a source for trees!

2002 brought a new addition to the RGO! An expansion will enable us to "grow up" specimen trees through wider row spacing, more specific pruning techniques, and specialized care.
