This program made possible by
SMUD and the Sacramento Tree Foundation have been partnering
since 1990 with the Sacramento Shade program - and that’s over half a million
trees!
As temperatures
increase in our region, the need for sustainable urban forests also increases.
The Sacramento Shade Program has evolved to address these concerns by expanding
to offer both deciduous and evergreen trees that can be planted on any
qualifying open area on your property.
Trees not only cool
our homes naturally and beautify our neighborhoods, but they provide additional
benefits such as producing oxygen, cleaning the air we breathe, and storing
carbon.
