In partnership with the Climate Change Coalition, the Village of Egg Harbor is making it easier for our residents to be part of the 2026 Big Plant!

Each season, the Big Plant offers native trees and shrubs for purchase—giving families, schools, and businesses a chance to plant on their own properties. By choosing native species, you’re helping restore local ecosystems and strengthen Door County’s climate resilience.

 

Order your trees from Climate Change Coalition by Tuesday, March 31.  Order here!

What is the Big Plant? - The Door County Big Plant was inspired and created by the Climate Change Coalition of Door County, and it is executed each year by hundreds of Door County individuals, families, businesses, churches, and non-profit ecological partners. We act as a community to plant thousands of trees over a 6-week period in celebration of Earth Day. (EVERY DAY is Earth Day.)
