UPCOMING PROJECTS 2026

Urban Indigenous Tree Project (2026)

In 2026, Collective Glow plans to start an urban tree and community restoration project. The project aims to reconnect underserved communities with nature, shared knowledge, and care for the environment. It focuses on bringing Indigenous trees into urban spaces while creating space for learning, participation, and healing.

The project will work in communities facing social and economic challenges. It looks at how trees, green spaces, and environmental knowledge can support wellbeing, climate awareness, and care for shared spaces. Through simple, hands-on activities such as planting, caring for trees, and learning about their value, the project encourages environmental awareness and a calm, grounded connection to nature.

This project is currently in the planning and development stage. Collective Glow is exploring partnerships and support to help bring this initiative to life in a community-led, sustainable way that responds to urban needs.
