Join us from 9:00 – 11:00 a.m. on September 16
It’s going to be a tree-mendous day! Join the City of Goleta this Saturday, September 16 to help plant trees at our cherished Stow Grove Park (580 N. La Patera Lane). We will be there from 9:00 – 11:00 a.m. with the goal of planting 100 trees to restore the grove for future generations. All ages and experience levels are welcome! Thank you to everyone who has already RSVP’d to plant trees with us.

The purpose behind the tree planting event has historical roots. Edgar Stow planted the original trees in the 1930s. Over the past 15 years of drought here in California, the coast redwoods of Stow Grove Park have declined in health. Some portions of the grove have remained strong and vigilant, while others have declined and died. With this effort of planting 100 trees, the City hopes to get the grove back to what Edgar Stow had envisioned from the beginning.

Here is what you need to know. We will provide all tools, materials, and knowledge necessary to successfully plant a tree. All you need is sunscreen, a hat, comfortable boots, and work gloves. Refreshments will be provided.

To make sure we have enough supplies, please let us know you are coming. You can send an email to [email protected] or call 805-562-5509.

We hope to see you there!
