About this Event

Join Canopy and The Marine Mammal Center as we work together to support the environment in the Bay Area by caring for trees! Healthy trees improve the health of our communities by cleaning the air, providing habitat for wildlife, and reducing stormwater runoff that can carry pollution into the San Francisco Bay, helping to protect the marine mammals that call these waters home. We hope by the end of this event you will have a stronger understanding of the connection between healthy urban forests and healthy marine ecosystems and will have some goals for next steps to take on your conservation journey.

Stewardship Saturday events vary in levels of physical and mental exertion. Please review the entire event description, including accessibility notes, to ensure this event meets your expectations.

We can sign for Community Service hours if you need us to!
