The Ventura Tree Alliance, the City of Ventura’s Urban Forestry staff and community members teamed up to plant fifteen trees to help shade and beautify Barranca Vista Park for a family-friendly tree planting day on Earth Day, Friday, April 21.
The funds for this event were provided by generous donations from the community: people from all walks of life that see the value of trees and want to take part in cooling the air, providing habitat, reducing water run-off, muting traffic noise and mitigating Co2 emissions.
