Peace and Passive Cooling!

2nd Annual Planting for Peace Day - April 24th


Help us plant 200 trees and smaller plants to celebrate our 2nd Annual Planting for Peace Day in the Nuestro Barrio neighborhood.

These trees will help the neighborhood achieve their goal of 50% tree canopy coverage within the next 5-7 years. Trees will be planted to passively cool homes and shade sidewalks. Whenever possible, they will also be planted to harvest rain or greywater.
