Community Projects & Education

We love trees and our community. We work to give back to San Francisco Bay Area communities through tree projects and ongoing education. Part of tree care is ensuring a healthy habitat is maintained for the trees and the wildlife.

  • Christopher gives lectures for Friends of the Urban Forest and has also lectured for San Francisco Professional Gardner’s Association, City College of San Francisco (CCSF) and the Western Chapter International Society of Arboriculture (WCISA).

    He annually conducts educational walking Tree Tours.

    Every year CC Tree Design co-hosts CypressFest at Cypress Lawn Cemetery & Arboretum. CypressFest includes lectures and a tree climbing competition endorsed by the WCISA.

  • Giving back to the community is important to us.  We volunteer to do greening and tree planting projects for public schools and public green spaces.

    We also conserve habitat for bees, birds and animals by protecting nests during pruning projects, as well as planting trees and protecting plants that attract pollinators.
