Climate Friendly Trees
Maintaining a healthy, mature tree canopy on Bainbridge Island requires thoughtful planning, a mix of diverse species, and a commitment to continuing care.
When it comes to trees, forests, and climate change, Bainbridge Island is expected to experience changes to:
- Dominant vegetation
- Decreased tree growth
- Increased fire risk due to summer water stress
To learn more about what climate ready tree species to plant and how to care for them, read the materials linked under learn more to the right.
