Educating, Planting, Partnering
The Woodland Tree Foundation is a non-profit organization run by volunteers dedicated to improving Woodland through the planting of trees. Our motto is Building Community Through Canopy.
In June 2000, a group of Woodland leaders came together to achieve a clear set of goals:
- To Educate residents, local government, schools, local businesses and others in the community about the health, economic, and environmental benefits of a healthy tree canopy in Woodland
- To Plant and care for trees to beautify and cool Woodland streets and public spaces
- To Partner with the City, community groups, schools, businesses and individuals to stretch dollars and other resources on behalf of trees
Our work has been recognized by organizations throughout the state. Woodland Tree Foundation was featured in California ReLeaf’s on-line publication ReLeaf at Work, and we are proud to have received the Sacramento Tree Foundation’s Austin B. Carroll Tree Hero award as well as the "Democracy Works Award" from the Woodland League of Women Voters.
