Seattle has one of the most diverse street tree programs in the country — double the diversity of the East Coast, and triple the diversity of the Midwest. Today, only 5% of the city's trees in the public right-of-way are originally native to King County. Join Taha Ebrahimi, author and illustrator of Street Trees of Seattle: An Illustrated Walking Guide, for a talk about some of the notable trees near the Burke Museum and their interconnections with our cultural history.

Taha Ebrahimi is the author and illustrator of Street Trees of Seattle: An Illustrated Walking Guide (Sasquatch Books, 2024). She serves as a member of the council for Historic Seattle and has been named “Seattle’s Coolest Street Tree Expert” by The Stranger.
