Welcome to Jon; Jon, Jenny, anyone;
I know there are community gardening projects in NYC... but are there any community tree growing projects which help demonstrate how it could be 3 or 4 generations' worth of the neighborhood families that'll be charged with taking care of the trees over a LONG period of time, i.e., keeping ingrates away from vandalizing them, making sure they get properly tended in whatever way would work, etc., such that city dwellers begin to develop a real sense of how valuable those old and large city trees are, i.e., as a way of thwarting unintended destructive action against city trees... just curious.
