100,000 more trees in the City of Trees? Clegg’s big idea for Boise takes root

Boise’s long love affair with the tree knows no bounds. The name of the city itself derives from “les bois,” which translates into the woods in French. We call it the City of Trees, we host a festival known as Treefort… heck, we even share our name with the Boise National Forest.

But one Boise City Council member pines for even more trees.

One-hundred-thousand more trees, in fact.
