About this Event
Come volunteer with the Sacramento Tree Foundation on Wednesday October 1, as we plant trees at the Sacramento Metro Fire District Station 55!
We provide all the necessary tools and supplies to care for trees. Participants will receive a short, hands-on training on site. After learning the tools and techniques, participants will split up into groups and begin planting trees throughout the park.
