Busan will host the 2025 Citizen Tree Planting Event at Hwamyeong Ecological Park on March 22 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. All residents are invited to participate for free and contribute to a greener future.
Participants will help plant trees, plants and flowers. Nearly 3,000 hydrangeas will be planted to establish a dedicated hydrangea field. In addition, around 800 fig and jujube tree saplings will be available on a first-come, first-served basis for visitors to take home.
City officials expect close to 2,000 citizens to join the event. Individuals and families can show up without reservations, however groups of 20 or more must submit an application via email by March 5.
Visitors are encouraged to travel to Hwamyeong Ecological Park via mass transit. A shuttle bus will operate from exit 5 of Hwamyeong Station (metro line 2) to bring participants to the park.
