The article describes stewardship mapping, a new method of greenery management developed in the United States of North America, starting from the explanation of the term stewardship through an announcement of implementing the method in Poland where it has not been applied yet. The author reaches out to economic sciences to explain the meaning of stewardship. Stewardship mapping may be well understood provided that the reader knows the concept of urban environmental stewardship, which is careful management of the natural environment by multiple municipal entities called stewardship groups. A thorough theoretical analysis of the American terms is aimed at appropriate interpretation of the American national project (STEW-MAP) constituting the practical application of stewardship mapping, and moving it to the Polish conditions afterwards. The STEW-MAP project is available on websites and, apart from a description, consists of interactive maps of entities working on greenery in several big cities of the United States and diagrams of connections between the entities in each city separately. The tedious process of looking for these entities and encouraging giving answers to the questionnaire questions within the STEW-MAP project constitute inseparable elements of the studies on involvement of various groups in the enhancement of the natural environment in US cities.
