Arbor Day Tree Planting (D5 Neighborhood Beautification Day)
About this event
Join San Francisco Public Works for a day of greening and neighborhood pride in District 5 and District 6 (Western Addition, Tenderloin, SOMA, and more).
Our goal is to plant 100+ trees in 1 day and we need your help! Volunteers will be assigned to 14 teams and plant street trees in District 5 and District 6. This event is rain-or-shine.
Trees help reduce storm-water runoff, clean the air, and provide habitat for birds and butterflies. Plus bring lots of beauty and shade to our urban streetscape among many other benefits!
