About this Event

Join us as we help take care of Lions Park by providing tree care to the parks young trees. During this volunteer event we will be mulching, weeding, pruning, and watering, in addition to general clean up of the park.

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 tree care 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.

About this project

At the Sacramento Tree Foundation, we work with community members to support their visions of growing green neighborhoods. With your help, we plant over 12,000 trees every year, but the work doesn't stop there. Trees need regular care to thrive, especially for their first three years after planting. This event is part of Folsom NeighborWoods, an initiative to grow and care for the urban forest in Folsom.

Support for this event is provided by SMUD and the City of Folsom.

If you have questions about this initiative or would like to get more deeply involved, please contact Kayden Rosenbauer, Community Arborist, at [email protected] or 916-974-4324.
