Are you looking to gain practical skills in the area of restoration and field ecology?  Intern with our NAtive Trees in Urban and Rural Environments (NATURE) team as they work to plant, restore and maintain sites in the Sacramento area.

We will reach our 5 million tree goal with your help. Volunteer with us to plant more trees where you live, work, and play.

Planting a tree is one way to establish a living memorial that will bring peace, joy and security for generations. Likewise, the planting of a tree can be a gratifying act, which honors the memory of a friend or relative, or recognizes a special person or occasion.

Learn the answers to these questions:

• How wide should I dig the hole when I plant shade trees?
• How high above the soil level should the top of the root ball be?

October and November are the best months to plant trees. Roots get a great start in cooler soil. Watch our tree planting video to see best planting practices in action!

Your gift will strengthen our resources, allowing us to recruit and train more volunteers, educate more people on the benefits of trees and our urban forest and, ultimately, plant more trees.
