Part 3 - Line 4a

SACRAMENTO SHADE/NEIGHBORWOODS:CONTINUING A 30-YEAR PARTNERSHIP WITH THE SACRAMENTO MUNICIPAL UTILITY DISTRICT, THE SACRAMENTO TREE FOUNDATION IN FISCAL YEAR 2021 ENGAGED AND EDUCATED OVER 4,000 SACRAMENTO COUNTY RESIDENTS IN THE PLANTING AND CARE OF OVER 10,000 SHADE TREES. THE TREES WERE PLANTED TO MAXIMIZE ENVIRONMENTAL AND PUBLIC HEALTH BENEFITS, SUCH AS: ENERGY SAVINGS, CARBON SEQUESTRATION,IMPROVING AIR QUALITY, LOWERING URBAN HEAT, AND STORMWATER REDUCTION. TO ENSURE THAT TREES ARE PLANTED AND CARED FOR IN NEIGHBORHOODS THAT NEED THEM MOST, WE WORK DIRECTLY WITH COMMUNITY MEMBERS THROUGH OUR NEIGHBORWOODS PROGRAM. THESE INITIATIVES FOCUS ON BUILDING LOCAL LEADERSHIP AND DELIVERING PROGRAMMING THAT IS CUSTOMIZED TO MEET EACH COMMUNITYS SPECIFIC NEED. THIS YEAR, OVER 2,500 VOLUNTEERS JOINED US TO PLANT, CARE FOR, AND STEWARD TREES IN SACRAMENTOS URBAN COMMUNITIES.


URBAN WOOD RESCUE:IN APRIL 2018 URBAN WOOD RESCUE OFFICIALLY OPENED FOR BUSINESS. HISTORICALLY THE URBAN TREES IN SACRAMENTO THAT WERE CUT DOWN WERE SENT TO THE DUMP, CHIPPED INTO MULCH, OR CUT INTO FIREWOOD. URBAN WOOD RESCUE ACTIVELY DIVERTS THESE BEAUTIFUL TREES FROM THE LANDFILL AND CONVERTS THEM INTO USABLE LUMBER SO THEY CAN CONTINUE PROVIDING BEAUTY AND BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY. SALVAGING AND REPURPOSING THIS WOOD ADDS A NEW DIMENSION TO SACRAMENTOS LEGACY AS THE CITY OF TREES AND GIVES A SECOND LIFE TO OUR TREES. CARBON SEQUESTRATION IS AN IMPORTANT CONSIDERATION IN MITIGATING CLIMATE CHANGE. BY TURNING THIS VALUABLE WOOD INTO USEABLE LUMBER THAT CARBON CAN BE CAPTURED FOR MANY GENERATIONS WHILE ALSO UTILIZING A LOCAL RESOURCE THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BECOME TRASH. ALL PROCEEDS OF WOOD SALES SUPPORT THE WORK OF THE SACRAMENTO TREE FOUNDATION - EVERY PURCHASE HELPS US ACHIEVE OUR MISSION.
