Located in Garberville, California, Trees Foundation was created in 1991 with the mission to restore the ecological integrity of California’s North Coast by empowering and assisting regional community-based conservation and restoration projects. Trees seeks to increase the effectiveness of regional conservation and restoration projects led by committed activists and volunteers on lean budgets by leveraging resources to provide an array of free professional and technical services. These services include: graphic design and publications, website development and programming, fiscal sponsorship, geographic information system (GIS) mapping services, donor advised grants, organizational development consultation, and skills training.

Trees Foundation also produces a quarterly news publication, Forest & River News, which features and promotes the work of our conservation and restoration partner organizations and highlights the importance and interconnectedness of the many dedicated grassroots efforts to protect and restore the forests, rivers, and wild places of Northern California.
