SAVE the TREES near a large Oakland air polluter

SAVE the TREES near a large Oakland air polluter

Sun, Aug 16, 5:30 PM
From Trees for Oakland
4.9

Nearly 90 new trees in the median need TLC. Park at 8000 Edgewater Drive median (off Hegenberger near Oakland Airport) parking lot. We have recently planted trees that need mulch, water and weed removal. These trees are currently alive, so now with this infusion of TLC, they will be safe until winter rains to resume growth. The temperature is likely cooler than most of Oakland as it is near the San Leandro Bay. You will need sun hat, water bottle and closed toe shoes. We will have gloves and water refill and a shade canopy.
