Another Tree-Mendous event in Santa Monica on Arbor Day

By Jerry Rubin
Much thanks to everyone who organized the inspiring event in Santa Monica Palisades Park and everyone who attended!
 
New trees were planted at a special Santa Monica Arbor Day event and 5 trees were officially designated to be the first in the City’s new Heritage Tree Program, including the Children’s Tree of Life, which was planted by Marissa and I at a 1983 Earth Day peace celebration in the park.
(Marissa and I were married at that tree nearly 34 years ago, so it’s extra special to us!)

* Photo of my wife Marissa and I holding the photo was taken by Urban Forest Task Force member Gloria Garvin.
