Benicia’s history is rich with examples of how the founders of the community made decisions with great foresight that would impact the long term appeal of Benicia as a place where people want to live and enjoy a beautiful climate. The native hillsides that were once dry and sparsely planted with shrubs have been transformed into inviting neighborhoods and streets lined with trees from around the world. These diverse trees have been planted in and around the buildings where we live and work, making our community cooler, cleaner, and more comfortable.
We invite you to help us continue this legacy and improve our climate for future generations. Please sign up today and join us at one of our volunteer tree planting events.
