Join us as we plant native seedlings
About this Event

Join us to plant over 100 native seedlings along the Stone Creek Community Bike Trail. Not only will these trees provide critical wildlife habitat, they will also shade the trail, clean the air, and make the space more beautiful for all to enjoy.

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 site.

Register now! The week before this event, we will send a logistics and directions email with detailed information about how to get to the site. You will receive this email ONLY if you are signed-up for this planting.


Who should attend?

Anyone, but those who live or work nearby are especially encouraged to attend! This event is open to the general public, you do not need any prior experience to join us and on-site training will be provided. Families with children are welcome.

About this project

At the Sacramento Tree Foundation, we work community members to support their visions of growing green neighborhoods. In Rancho Cordova, those visions have resulted in free stump removal, residential and community tree plantings, native tree reforestation, and educational tree care workshops with a focus on working in under-canopied communities.

With your help at reforestation plantings like this one, we plant 1,500 native trees in open spaces every year that provide a respite from city life and habitat for wildlife. Native trees are essential to our local ecology, and they're beautiful too!

Support for this event is provided by the City of Rancho Cordova.

If you have questions about this initiative or would like to get more deeply involved, please contact Justin Rubio, Volunteer Coordinator, at [email protected] or (916) 974-4310 .
