Volunteers will plant, stake and spread mulch to approximately 20 new trees. The planting holes will already be pre-dug and backfilled, making them easy to clear and ready for planting.

Trees and stakes are provided through a generous partnership between SMUD and The Sacramento Tree Foundation.
All tools and supplies will be provided by YPCE.
What to bring:

- refillable water bottles
