Welcome to Venice Urban Forest
The Venice Urban Forest has been created to provide habitat for birds and animals, cooling and much needed carbon sequestration, oxygen generation and storm water absorption. Our goal is restoring the natural, native vegetation… the original ecosystem, thereby contributing to a healthy and sustainable environment.
In addition to providing badly needed habitat for wildlife, the Venice Urban Forest project is restoring an abandoned railway site into a forest filled with native trees and understory for the enjoyment of nature by visitors. The Venice Urban Forest is nearly two miles of lush forest, where people of all ages can enjoy an oasis of relaxation and peace.
