Our work

Three focused programs. One measurable conservation model.

The first operating model is intentionally focused: build urban canopy responsibly, restore habitat through partnerships, and create long-term community stewardship.

Program 01

Community Canopy

Beginning in Stockton and San Joaquin County, this program is designed around climate-appropriate tree planting, care, maintenance and canopy-building in communities where trees can provide durable environmental and public benefits.

  • Site and species selection before planting
  • Landowner/agency permission and maintenance commitments
  • Tree-care and replacement planning
  • 6-, 12- and 24-month survival monitoring where feasible

Program 02

Forest & Habitat Restoration

Rather than attempting complex landscape restoration alone, the organization’s early strategy is to work with experienced land stewards, nonprofits, agencies and technical partners.

  • Native habitat and riparian restoration
  • Partner-led field implementation
  • Invasive-species and stewardship support where appropriate
  • Project-area, habitat and follow-up documentation
See project framework
Program 03

Nature Education & Stewardship

Environmental education turns one-time activities into a culture of stewardship. Future activities may include volunteer events, youth learning, tree-care instruction and citizen participation tied directly to conservation projects.

  • Volunteer stewardship days
  • Schools and youth programming
  • Tree-care and habitat education
  • Community science and monitoring where appropriate
