Agency: TreePeople
Description:
 TreePeople Park in the Hollywood Hills! It's a beautiful 45 acre area that thousands of elementary aged school children visit every year to attend Eco-Tours, TreePeople's unique environmental educational program. On the 2nd Saturday of every month volunteers come out to help them keep the park looking great by maintaining the trails, invasive plant removal, rock replacement, slope regrading, erosion protection, wall restoration (the walls were built in 1930's) and seedling cage/nursery work. Each month there will likely be a different task so join us in this exciting ongoing opportunity with one of our longest running agency partners.Click here to see: Photos of 1st TreePeople Park Project Feb 10, 2007!
