Program Summary
Join us as we celebrate a decade of cultivating San Diego's urban forest and championing a sustainable future for our county. In celebration of this significant milestone, we are delighted to continue our ambitious initiative, "Leafing Our Legacy." This program aims to create a lasting impact by donating up to 5,000 trees to San Diegans by the end of 2025.
​
"Leafing Our Legacy" stands as our commemorative project, marking the culmination of our 10-year journey, contributing to the enrichment of San Diego's green landscape, and addressing environmental disparities.
Each month, we will host tree-distribution events providing an opportunity for participants to take home their very own trees! These events serve as a nexus for community engagement, fostering education on urban forestry and a celebration of sustainability.
​
"This program is delightful and absolutely valued. It is one tangible way I feel like I am doing good for our environment and leaving a legacy for the next generation."

Tree Treks Map
Our Tree Treks map provides an overview of the parks to be traversed throughout the year. Each tree visited during a Tree Trek is mapped on the Tree Plotter platform which allows Trekkers to pull up eco-benefits information about the tree and its surroundings.
​
Simply click on the map, zoom in to a park you plan to visit, and select a tree (colored dot) to see its eco-benefits!
