Who We Are

Who We Are

Canopy's work is accomplished by a diverse range of dedicated volunteers, board members, and supporters as well as a small staff of three.

Our work is rooted in the community and involves residents of all ages in a variety of facets of urban forest care.

Canopy counts on hundreds of volunteers annually to plant, care for, and survey Palo Alto and East Palo Alto's City trees. Board members dedicate countless hours to educating and inspiring the community on the importance of urban trees. It takes a village to raise a forest!

"Canopy has something for everyone, and everything it touches is superbly organized. Its programs engage everyone from school kids to older adults."
