Our mission is to grow urban tree canopy in Midpeninsula communities for the benefit of all. Our vision is a day when every resident of the Midpeninsula can step outside to walk, play, and thrive under the shade of healthy trees. Canopy prioritizes tree planting and stewardship, education, and advocacy in communities where people do not have a thriving urban forest due to limited resources, competing priorities, and historical development and urbanization patterns.
Continue reading Canopy's Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Policy. Engage: We plant and steward community trees in partnership with residents, volunteers, school communities, municipalities, and grassroots partners. Educate: We create life-long environmental stewards through exploration and education about trees and tree care. Steward: Our rigorous approach to tree care and maintenance-always engaging the community-ensures high rates of tree survival and longevity.
Advocate: We uphold and promote policies and funding that protect trees and promote a healthy urban forest.
