About YOUR CHILDRENS TREES

Location:

69 CALAVERAS AVE, GOLETA, CA 93117, US

Mission Statement

We are a student community-based non-profit organization working to restore Santa Barbara's local ecosystems through planting trees, educating Santa Barbara students and residents, and caring for the surrounding environment.

Description

Your Children's Trees is a student community-based non-profit organization founded in coordination with the UCSB organization of the same name for the care of Santa Barbara County's urban forests. Planting trees in our cities helps bring back nature and provides many other benefits such as urban beautification, increasing property values, cleaning the air, and controlling water runoff. Your Children's Trees works to keep our urban forests healthy by planting and caring for trees in public areas such as schools and parks. We also undertake various educational pursuits such as participating in science nights at local elementary schools and conducting environmental restoration plantings in ecological reserves. It's important that we take care of the trees around us. These are not just our trees, but your children's trees.
