Engagement Events

Urban Tree Plantings & Care

TreePeople is working with a number of local cities to bring much needed shade trees to these urban communities. Planting and caring for young trees is a great way to get outdoors and help in the effort to combat urban heat. TreePeople will lead your team and provide all the necessary tools and leadership support for a safe and successful experience. Events run from 9am to Noon. Available locations and type of event (tree planting or care) depend on the location, and vary by season. See Required Donation below for cost.

Mountain Restoration

TreePeople has a long history of work in our region’s local mountains. Help us restore our local ecosystems by planting and watering native plants and removing non-native, invasive vegetation. We are currently working in several locations including the Angeles National Forest restoring an area that burned in the Copper fire, as well as several locations in the Santa Monica Mountains. TreePeople will lead your team and provide all the necessary tools and leadership support for a safe and successful experience. Events run from 9am to Noon. Available locations depend on the size of your group, and specific tasks vary by season. See Required Donation below for cost.

Coldwater Canyon Park Beautification

TreePeople’s beautiful 45-acre Coldwater Canyon Park headquarters is located atop Mulholland Drive and Coldwater Canyon where hikers, cyclists and school children enjoy trails, trees and views. It’s a peaceful oasis in the middle of our urban jungle. Join us for a Park Beautification Day to maintain the trails, remove invasive plants, water trees, and more. TreePeople will lead your team and provide all the necessary tools and leadership support for a safe and successful experience. Events run from 10am to Noon. See Required Donation below for cost.

Virtual Lunch and Learn

Host an online “Lunch and Learn” to build environmental literacy and DIY knowledge with your team. Invite TreePeople to share and educate your employees on various different topics, so they can learn what they can do personally to make a difference in our new climate reality.

How to Compost
How to Plant a Native and Climate-Appropriate Garden
