Grow Trees Together

Invest in canopy, community and climate action for San Diego.  Join Kate Sessions Commitment to grow trees in every neighborhood, and especially those that most need trees and shade. Learn how to plant and care for trees for long-term health.

Why Grow Trees Together?

We want to build community around growing trees.  Trees engage us for reasons as diverse as bird watching or cooling a home.  Different organizations also have missions (health, nature, climate action) that can be met through healthy trees.  Let’s grow healthy trees for healthy neighborhoods together.

“The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.”

Chinese Proverb

By taking action with us, volunteers will learn the fundamentals of planting and caring for trees. It’s also a great way to meet community leaders and neighbors who align with environmental justice and stewardship. We’re here to grow more healthy trees along your streets, parks, parking lots, schoolyards, backyards, places of worship, and businesses. Together we will help implement our Climate Action Plan, reduce water and air pollution, provide wildlife habitats, enjoy cooler neighborhoods and more active living, and carry on the legacy of Kate Sessions.
