Pasadena Street Trees

It can be argued that "Trees are the only component of urban infrastructure that actually appreciate in value". Just look at the list of benefits below. We in Pasadena are blessed with a TREE-mendous canopy of leaves over our city. But for it to be sustainable, new trees must be planted every year. We work together with the City of Pasadena to plant trees in vacant parkway sites, upgrade the size of planted trees, respond to resident requests for a few trees or coordinate major projects for hundreds of trees.
