Each year, the Arbor Day Foundation honors top individuals and organizations involved in exemplary tree planting and environmental practices.
The Trailblazer award recognizes an individual under the age of 35 who has demonstrated leadership in forestry, community forestry, research, or tree care during the past five years.
As the Community Image Manager for Miami-Dade County’s Neat Streets Miami board, Florida, Gabriela Lopez manages the board’s Million Trees Miami initiative, created to achieve a 30 percent tree canopy cover for Miami-Dade County. Under Gabriela’s leadership, Neat Streets Miami has directly planted more than 9,500 trees and given away 6,225 free trees since 2017. Previously, the initiative was planting fewer than 100 trees each year.
