Symbolism of the Banyan Tree

A part of our South Florida landscape, the Banyan tree spreads its canopy of leaved branches to welcome all who seek shade from the blazing sun. There is room for all under the canopy and all are welcome. At the same time, the root system extends far and wide to gather nourishment from all directions. The mature Banyan with its wide base of interconnected trunks is a symbol of strength, resilience, and interconnectedness, taking on an immortal appearance. 

 

In some cultures, the Banyan tree is the central pillar of community life. A provider of shelter and support, the Banyan tree stands as protector, place of refuge, and space for community gathering. 

​
Impact the Palm Beaches, a women’s collective giving organization, embraces the vibrant symbolism of the Banyan tree. Like these trees, we open our collective arms, welcoming all who want to join to strengthen and empower our community. Established in 2015, we have a developed network of roots and like the Banyan tree, will continue to be a source of strength and protection through the generosity of our members and our community.
