Meadow Street MicroForest

One of the Largest MicroForests in New England

In 2025, Plan it Wild designed and planted a MicroForests on an abandoned basketball count in Norwalk, Connecticut. We had been exploring how to reforest the fragmented and small open spaces of suburbia and its urban centers. We discovered what’s called the Miyawaki methodology, which recommends dense tree and shrub plantings that grow rapidly and can establish themselves quickly in developed areas, keeping maintenance requirements at a minimum. Our Norwalk work was done in partnership with the Norwalk Land Trust.
