Giving back to the Earth 🌎 and the community! ReWild is grateful to have joined forces with @newrootssacramento to care for trees on a farm run by the International Rescue Committee, founded by Albert Einstein 🥼⚛️
These trees will one day be the shade for outdoor events on the farm like BBQs and birthday parties - we’re also going back soon to help do the same thing for some Fruit Trees!
Through irrigation and mulching these trees, we’re helping nature thrive and supporting sustainable growth for generations to come 🌳💚
Planting trees is great but those little babies need some care in their early years to grow up to be big, strong, shade monsters. Arborist Alex Binck demonstrated tree pruning basics at the Scottish Rite Masonic Center in River Park. Everyone got a chance to find the strongest leader branch and prune away the weaker branches. We also gave the tree roots a good mulching to hold water and protect the trunks from weeds and weed whackers.
Walk or bike by the location where Fair Oaks splits into H and J streets.
Thanks Scottish Rite Masonic Center for planting the trees and for providing mulch, partnership, and tools.
Yet another wildly successful event.
We planted 15 trees around the park with support from neighborhood volunteers, the City of Sacramento, the City Youth, Parks, and Community Enrichment (YPCE), Strong Sactown, and California Releaf. The trees were generously donated by SMUD and the Sacramento Tree Foundation.
Councilmember Mai Vang provided snacks with water, coffee, pastries, fruit. Director of Communications Alexxiss Diaz helped to plant trees with us.
The City provided fabulous logistical support. City parks staff augured the holes, and distributed the trees, tools, and mulch. They also tidied up the park beforehand - great job!

Art Guerrero's family members attended to plant a tree and to remind us of Art's significant contributions to the neighborhood through his work, teaching, faith, and community activism.
As usual, the City provided all the logistical support for us. When the volunteers arrived, holes were augured, trees and tools placed, and mulch placed.
We planted 9 trees around the park with volunteers from the City of Sacramento, the City Youth, Parks, and Community Enrichment (YPCE), Strong Sactown, and the Marshall-New Era Neighborhood Association. The trees were generously donated by SMUD and the Sacramento Tree Foundation.
