Micro-forest Planting Party

We are making a micro-forest! Are you in?

Help us plant over a hundred sagescrub and oak woodland plants to create a mature, biodiverse and self-sustaining California forest in a fraction of the time.

Quick habitat. Less Weeding. Micro-forests work. Learn more about Micro-forest at LA Micro Forests.

Volunteers should:

• Wear sunscreen, hat, sunglasses
• Bring water
• Bring gardening gloves and tools (weeders, trowels, whatever you use in your own garden), there are extra tools and gloves for those who need them
• Wear comfortable work clothes, including work shoes (sneakers or boots) and long pants
• Bring binoculars for birdwatching (optional)

Children must be under adult supervision at all times. There is poison oak in the park that we will point out before starting. If you are planning to bring more than five in a group, please email me so we can be sure to have enough tools ([email protected]).
